DTV_Begpacker nothing gets done between 4-15 December even there are just 2 public holidays? You mean all of them taking all the other days off???

Well let’s break it down from a worker perspective…and I’m guessing you have worked in your life in a 9-5
The 4th was a Thursday holiday was the 5th a Friday
Then the weekend
The 10th is a Wednesday
So either you burn sick time/PTO on the 4th come back on the 8th
Work the 9th have holiday on the 10th
burn PTO/Sick time on 11 and 12 and into the weekend
2 4 day weekends and basically 1 day of work in that time period
And I’m guessing it’s half days on 4th and the 9th with a team building day on 11-12
Or you just take all PTO from 4-12 either way
If you’ve ever worked a day in your life for a company you will totally understand this schedule…if not I have no idea

@Robert ******
can you imagine people have different reasons to ask? It’s not only about working during waiting. Show a bit more empathy please 🙏Robert *******
@Maureen *********
Im full iwth empathy, can you imagine that?It takes time to sort out applications, review them and make a good decision, can you show me a bit more empathy for the work at the Embassy/Consulate and later Immigration?
Robert *******
@Maureen *********
So you tell me that I need more empathy by assuming something different than me and you even call that pay respect and understand.Well in my definition it is something else.

@Robert ******
I definitely pay respect and understanding but if he/she/they asking - the background of everyone is different. But thank you for your kind advice 😉

do you remember which email you used to write them? I found a few and I don’t want to send an email to all of them to avoid spamming. I run out of medication because I didn’t expect it takes so long and I took medicines only for 10 days with me.
