Trouble is, Mr Angry, that with the current way of doing leave you can't even do that - the RDO is the only way, basically of getting a single required day off.
I have a family wedding this Friday, but instead of the sicky, I was owed 2 days off from disruption earlier this year which I said I was going to use for the wedding and the following day. I stated this in May, repeated it in June reminded them in July and then when I got a sneak preview of the roster at the end of July, with me flying away from base on both days, TOLD them I was not going to be available. Intermediate rostering apologised and changed the days to my owed days off.
I used to do the same for Christmas and Boxing Day, but after 5 years of earlies on Dec 26th, I have now given up!!!
