Is it crossing a boundary to ask for a day off because we will be trying for a baby all day?

Thanks for your submission /u/LuciusDickusMaximus, but it has been removed for the following reason:

Disallowed question area: Joke questions or trolling.

This sub is meant for genuine questions...and it looks like yours isn't. Maybe it's a joke, maybe you're trying to bait people into reacting, or maybe we just can't figure out what you're trying to say (sorry). Either way, we've removed your post.

  • Trying to get a laugh out of people? While jokes, memes and song lyrics are all amusing, they're not what we're looking for here. Try /r/ShittyAskReddit.

  • Taking the sub name as a challenge and trying to post a stupid question isn't amusing, and it's also not the point of the sub (read the sidebar!). You're looking for /r/StupidQuestions.

  • Asking a question to show off a clever observation? Try /r/ShowerThoughts (but phrase it as an observation, not a question).

  • Testing a riddle? When you already know the answer, it's not a genuine question - but the users of /r/Riddles will love it.

  • Do you keep making new accounts to ask the same questions over and over again? That not only violates rule 2, but it's also not healthy. Try talking to a therapist about these thoughts, and try asking questions on different topics.

  • Trying to bait people into angry or shocked reactions? Try /r/RandomShit or /r/ShittyAskReddit ...or just go do something else.


This action was performed by a bot at the explicit direction of a human. This was not an automated action, but a conscious decision by a sapient life form charged with moderating this sub.

If you feel this was in error, or need more clarification, please don't hesitate to message the moderators. Thanks.

Oh gosh, just tell him you need a personal day! Or make something up. He/she doesn’t need to know that

As a boss, that is TMI. Just call out.

as a boss I'm sure you know what a fake sick day is when one is called and go for it anyway. listen to this dude

I don’t think that taking a day off for that is crossing a boundary.

I think that a boss wanting to know why you want a day off is.

You don't need to send why and would likely be viewed as inappropriate. Just say you need the day off and if you need to give a reason just say either "medical" or "pressing personal matter".

Take the day off but don’t tell them why, that’s awkward. My boss told me you never have to explain why you need the day off, it’s your time, use it. If you don’t have PTO and need permission, just leave it as you have something important to do.

If you're going with a fertility doctor who says that day is optimal to 'try for a baby' and have a note, no.

if you're just doing it to 'try for a baby' (seriously, all day would do nothing) yes

Yeah i'd avoid asking your boss that.

Just ask to use a vacation day if it's important. Also if youbare running out of time talk to your doctor about artifical insemination.

They don’t need to know why you need a day off. Just say it’s for personal matters of life making

Yes to the point where I’m doubting this is an earnest question

“Boss, can I have a day off - I need to let my husband raw dog me all day.”

That’s how the text will be read. The text will also be shared.

Ask for a day off, absolutely.. but no need to share why. You're entitled to time off without needing to explain a reason why to your boss.

It's tomorrow, usually you gotta give a reason for that little notice even if it's just "I'm sick"

Technically you don't have to. It's a courtesy to let them know if you're sick, but not required. Some companies have policies around it, however it can get sticky.

When I was a manager we had to be very careful in these situations as it could lead to issues if we asked questions, etc.
