Why are you positioning this like it&#x27;s the employee&#x27;s fault? I&#x27;ve had a gig with &quot;unlimited&quot; vacation time where my boss was very quietly stewing that he thought I was taking too much time. Never said anything to me until two weeks before I left.<p>It is in all cases management&#x27;s job to set these expectations, and their fault when they&#x27;re not understood on both ends of things. That&#x27;s why they&#x27;re management. (And why &quot;unlimited&quot; policies are stupid.)
