When you're on holiday, you're supposed to be chilling, relaxing, and reenergizing in whatever way feels right for you. Maybe you feel the best laying on the beach and soaking in the rays. Or you prefer taking long hikes in misty mountain forests.

Plenty of us have had our precious vacation time interrupted in one way or another, whether by accident or by someone at work who has no understanding of boundaries. However, odds are that you haven't been interrupted while on holiday like redditor u/Disposable70 was back in the '70s.

In a post on the r/MaliciousCompliance subreddit, the IT professional, who was also in charge of payroll, explained how he went on holiday to a cabin with no phones without having been given a proper backup to train beforehand. However, his idyllic time with his family, out in nature, was slightly interrupted by his boss in the most peculiar way we've ever heard about. Scroll down for the redditor's full story in his own words.

"Give your boss and key coworkers advance notice on when you are leaving for holiday, with a 'countdown'-such as: 'Just a heads up. I will be leaving in two weeks for holiday.' Follow that up one week in advance, and a couple days before your departure. How you communicate this and the frequency of course depends on how much interaction you generally have with your boss," she explained to Bored Panda.

"To mitigate interruptions, make it clear in your out of office reply that you will be checking email from time to time, but will have limited access. Also mention this in your status email to the boss and any appropriate colleagues," Lynn said that crystal-clear communication can help avoid trouble further down the line.

Bored Panda was very interested to get the workplace expert's take on how to shift gears and forget all about work once we're officially on holiday. There's no denying that many of us think about our work even when we're lazing around at a beach (some, including yours truly, more than others). There are few things worse than having that nagging feeling that you might have missed an important email when you're supposed to be recharging.

Have faith and confidence in all the steps you took in advance of your holiday.If it will calm your nerves, you can check your email in the beginning, but try to avoid it. This is a rare and valued retreat from your work life.Any work-related activities you engage in should have boundaries you set. For example, if you decide you want to check emails twice while away and only spend a total of 30 minutes on all things work, then stick to that," the expert shared with Bored Panda.

Though we have to remember that things worked a bit differently back in the '70s. The employee ended up going back to the office and compressing a full week's work into a mere two days.

Luckily, he was able to get an extra week off and even got his cabin rental all paid for. When you're making happy childhood memories for your kids by fishing with them, probably the last thing you want is to see the police approaching you in their boat, telling you your company called.

And they might refuse some of their employee's queries about going on holiday. Recently, Bored Panda spoke to Anna and Sarah, the founders of the 'Work Wives' podcast, about being denied paid time off and what to do when you encounter a difficult manager. "We all want to look out for ourselves first, especially when we are seeking leave from work, but most reasonable companies won't deny leave unless there's a logical reason.

Will you be leaving the workplace short-staffed? Do they need you specifically around that time? You need to consider how important your leave is and whether you'd really be putting your team in a difficult position for a trip to Cancun," they explained that having a bit of flexibility isn't a bad thing.

If the leave denial is completely unreasonable, you need to escalate it to senior management because there's obviously been a misunderstanding that needs to be addressed," they told us that, in some cases, it's a back-and-forth type of negotiation regarding time off. Even though it's easy to always paint your superiors as the villains in these sorts of situations, the fact of the matter is that it's through empathy and understanding that you'll get through to them. Effective workplace communication means understanding their perspective as well (even if you really would rather not.)
"Try to understand why they are managing the way that they are and consider what challenges they might be facing, either personally or professionally," Anna and Sarah stressed that it's vital to remember that managers are people, too.

"There are a lot of managers who don't have great leadership skills, but on that point, you don't have to be a manager to be a great leader in your workplace. You can lead the situation with a controlling boss by staying a step ahead and working to anticipate what concerns they might have, then you can come to them with the solutions already in hand," they told Bored Panda. "Understand that your manager is a human who has faults of their own and try not to take their poor management personally.

That meant the machine that printed paychecks (often one of those dot matrix printers) were a mystery outside everyone but the IT guys. I used to do site checks of the print and computer rooms of remote locations (think Spacely Sprockets hired Lexcorp to do their IT/print services) and busted more than 1 person working the printers who was "mysteriously" getting double paid.

Some of the machines had input panels to replace checks that were damaged during printing (usually the feeder shred it) while others had a separate one-off printer just to do them. It was a simple thing to "accidentally" manually print a duplicate check. Bookkeeping was still double entry in physical ledgers so it could slip through for a while if you knew what you were doing.
