And his boss legit threatened to replace him if he goes on his vacation. Can my friend sue the company for that?

Was it ever approved? No matter where you work, public, private, small, big, most places have to approve it before they go. So if it was never approved:

Fair, next

3. He always talks about being loyal to his company so I'm sure he is
4. Of course.
5. Ohio
6. Private business
6. Naw it's not a federal job

He's been talking to me about having this vacation trip for over a year now and he's made it clear that him and his boss spoke on this on several occasions already and his boss was okay with it but I guess today my friend got his passport and went to schedule this vacation trip and his boss is tripping out.

So it was never officially approved. Fair, next

Talking to your boss about it and having it approved aren't the same thing. He done goofed up

He didn't set a date yet because he needed his passport first before he could plan anything. Now that he has his passport he can start planning and his boss refuses to give him 2 of his weeks vacation off or else he's going to fire him.

I mean my friend isn't trying to be unreasonable. He was willing to find a date that would work good with his boss but his boss is just saying no to it or else he's going to replace him.

I think there is a subreddit on reddit that has lawyers and shit on it where you can ask for advice - probably better than here

Is his boss an asshole? Probably. He still needs to get it approved though, and if he can't that's tough shit. He can probably escalate it to HR or something and tell them his boss is being unreasonable, but depending on the politics that could make things worse for him.

Yep I told him it's time for him to get out of there and find a better job.

I guess the better question is this a good reason to sue with a good chance of victory?

I'll be leaving on a 2-week vacation in June.

Then a 4-week one in August.

Then I'll still have almost 4 weeks left until the end of the year. Which I can take whenever, no need to tell more than 1 week in advance. The day before for 3-day weekends.



Man, working in the US must suck.
