Help!!

Alright, I need some advice on what to do.

 

I currently have a full time job in an office. I work Monday-Thursday, 7-5. However, I've been trying to get into the dental hygiene program for this fall. I just found out that I can start this fall, IF and only IF, I attend the mandatory registration day in May. The registration day is on May 14th on a Wednesday. It's an all day thing, and I live 45 minutes away from the school, so I would have to take the time off from work. This would be fine, however, I am a bridesmaid in a good friend's wedding. For some reason, the groom's dad decided to have the wedding rehersal dinner early on Thursday May 15th, around 3:00, so I already have to leave early that day. Now I have to try and think of an excuse to take the 14th off, also.

 

Any advice on what to say?? I don't want to say it's mandatory for school, because then they're going to know I'm most likely leaving in the fall.

Just tell them you need two personal days to deal with wedding preparation issues. That date is a full month away, so more than sufficient notice time to work to let them know you need a couple days off.

That's good advice. Wedding preperations can be time-consuming. Your employer will morre than likely think nothing of it. Just say they wanted to refit the bridesmaids dresses or something along those lines. Good luck with the school!

Yes say the bridesmaids dresses need refitting at last minute etc and also you are helping out with the baloons and stuff and there is a rehersal in the church etc
