I have selected the unreasonable request (see below) ( feel free to add your own points, i just provided some basic information, please use the following PDF as a reference on this assignment. specifically chapters : 2,4,5,3,9 and13 PDF book: http://ndl.ethernet.edu.et/bitstream/123456789/4939/1/48.pdf.pdf Unreasonable request: I asked my direct supervisor if i could work remotely from Puerto Rico for 1 month. I am a case manager at a shelter for at risk youth and a lot of my work is done on the computer and only have to meet with my clients once a week but it could be video call so i thought this was the perfect Unreasonable request as i recently had a friend work remotely in another country and i thought “wow i wish i could do that”. outcome : When i asked my manager she appeared nervous, a bit uncomfortable with the question, I was also uncomfortable asking the question, i felt vulnerable asking as i felt like i knew the answer was no and she had the final decision I was worried that she would think I’m not dedicated to my job or that i was trying to take advantage of the company. I had also just received a raise . I was hopeful that she would say yes but i knew deep down that the answer was no. She asked me what the reason for working remote was, asked if i wanted to submit PTO, FMLA, Unpaid Time off, When i told her that it was just traveling for the experience she appeared even more uncomfortable with me asking the question, almost seemed annoyed , I presented all the information to her on how i would work the normal working hours, and would complete all my job duties in a timely manner and explained how the only difference was my location. She was very hesitant and kept asking follow up questions she ultimately said i could do 1 week of remote work, and that for the remaining time i would have to do PTO, STO, FMLA or some kind of time off request. She expressed how it was unfair to my work collogues, I was prepared for the answer to be a flat out No so i was very surprised when she negotiated the request. After she agreed I went home, booked a trip and now i am going to Puerto Rico in December for 1 week.
