[quote=Anonymous]I think if you value her, then you deal with it this time - and going forward, establish a different way of planning her vacations. Maybe you and she sit down with a calendar at the beginning of the year and you mark out the dates when you are definitely going to need coverage. Ask her if any of those conflict with her known plans. Let her know that for summer plans, you need to know by - whenever - April, if she's going to be going away so you can get the kids into camps. If you and she can't coordinate this together in a reasonable way, then the onus is on you to find someone else - or to find backup plans if you don't want to fire her. I would be very annoyed at this but wouldn't fire her if you're otherwise happy (and/or don't think you can get someone better). I'd really try to look at this as an opportunity to set out a process that'll work for you both going forward.[/quote]
