Employers are the cringiest of us all.

    Just to clarify for others, don’t tell your employer your outside-of-work plans. Just tell them you’re taking the day off. It may lend your time off “request” more legitimacy when you say it’s for a wedding or whatever, but that takes away from when you don’t give a reason. It also opens up your plans to judgement. If they press for a reason, just say it’s personal.

      Thank you, that’s exactly what i meant. “Tell them what you’re going to do” just means tell them you’re taking the day off.

      I appreciate the clarification. I see that how i worded it could be mistaken.

      If they press for a reason, just say it’s personal

      100% absolutely.
