A young office worker carefully planned his September vacation months in advance, booking flights and coordinating with his wife and friends. But when a coworker with kids realized she had forgotten to request the same week for her children’s school break, she demanded he swap days. He refused, explaining the trip was already set in stone.
What followed was office drama. Some colleagues accused him of being selfish and insisted “kids come first,” while others backed him up, saying it wasn’t his job to fix her oversight. Now he’s left wondering if standing firm makes him the bad guy.
