Jesus, you must be a JOY to work with.

If there's a new product launch and you're part of the small team building it... Just don't schedule your PTO on launch week. Schedule it a week or 2 later when the biggest fires have been put out. Don't fuck off when your team needs you the most. Use any other time for your PTO.

Now if there's always a fire burning and it never ends... That is an organizational failure and you should spend part of your PTO looking for a new job.
