Summary:
4 weeks' leave following vacation. True that the employer could have been more accommodating by notifying him earlier that it would only allow 1 week but it was under no obligation to do so. Claimant assumed, without reason, that his request was grantedand made travel plans.
The employer had a perfect right to refuse the claimant's request and it did so. The claimant as well had a perfect right to refuse to return to work when he was scheduled to do so but must now bear the consequences of that decision.
