[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP you have been given the advice several times to talk to your manager.  This is a very obvious first step, and something you should do even if you believe they can't do anything about it.

Why are you rejecting the idea?[/quote]

Because it's going to create awkward extra aggravation and not yield a result. I have four managers for two projects. They deal with the data side and not the HR side. I can't imagine them giving me any response that would be remotely useful in terms of result to my problem. [/quote]

Earlier, you said this:  " They also had me do extra work not within the scope of my responsibilities for the past two weeks, with zero notice. I was expected to be flexible and now they are rigid with me."

If the "they" that had you do extra work is your manager, then you have already drawn the connection between the time off request and your manager.

At a minimum, for as long as you continue to work there, you will want a good relationship with your manager and explaining to them why you will not be working that day is in your own long term best interest.  Bonus points if it helps you understand better what is happening, and extra bonus points if you are able to actually solve the problem- whether it be the "Extra" work or the time off.[/quote]
