OP here. Thank you this made me feel better. I understand with my job sometimes it's not easy finding back up. I like to give lots and lots of notice.
No it's not an emergency but it's a family event that I'd hate to miss. My cousin is getting leave and will be home. I have to travel so that's why I wanted two days off.
