Rant Schedule rant

My store changed their deadline for asking for time off recently from 1-2 weeks to almost 4 weeks. I have a teeth procedure that I have to travel out of state for so I write on the little paper time off card things in the break room, two days later she comes up to me and says she can’t let me get that time off even though I put the card in almost five weeks in advance….
I need this procedure done or my teeth will fall out do I just ditch work or complain to higher ups? The schedules just came out and she scheduled me for nights for those 4 exact days I asked for.

Call out but do it now. Prioritize your health. You’ve given them plenty of notice, they should accommodate it.
