I’m pretty much always at least a little bit anxious at work. It’s my first job, which I’m grateful to have, and I’ve been there for around 9 months now. I’ve known my boss for a long time but still I get nervous approaching her about minor things, even if i did nothing wrong. I’ve only asked for a day off when I’ve needed it for something important. However, next month I was invited to do something that I really want to do, and I’d be pretty disappointed to miss it. It’s not anything important though. It’s just something I’d really like to do. It would require me to leave an hour and a half early from work that day though. Is it wrong to ask to leave early from work for an unimportant reason? I’d be giving her a month’s notice. I haven’t had any days off or days where I’ve left early this year, and this will probably be one of the few if only occasions where I’ll ask. I’m just so worried she’ll get mad at me for asking since it’s for something unimportant.
