Rant: Life always fuck my travel plans.

Context - Applied for leave but manager told that there might be some work coming my way so don’t take leave. I obliged but then I had an Idea of Workcation 😭

Since work till now is pretty lite so I planned a workcation thinking I would be working for like 4-5 hrs and will roam around in the evening.

But on the day of my travel, my manager called and told me that there’s some high priority work and I had to put in long hours for getting this delivered within this week so considering I will not be having much time to roam and explore, I ended up cancelling my travel plan losing 15k in bookings and here I am, having not much to do because we are waiting for other folks to share some data and inputs.

I mean wth 🤦‍♂️ Life has fucked me really hard.

Note- I live with my parents so I had planned a good 4 days getaway with my wife but it seems destiny had other plans. Since my parents are dependent so we both never got chance to travel and explore in each other company.

Venting out here for no reason.

Best to make these thighs clear with manager way in advance. Keeping things unclear until the end is usually a reason plans go belly up
