Advice How much is too much leave?
Hello everyone!
I (19F) recently started at a 9-5 Office job. Its my first ever 'big girl' job. My jobs pretty low stakes and nothing is ever super urgent tbh. I have been taking leave what I'd say evens out to be about a day a month.
My past couple months have looked like this:
August - 3 days off (went out of town) September : finished 3 hours early one day October: One half day off November: One half day off , One full Day off December: (To be booked) 1 day off.
I'm getting nervous about booking the December day off. I have over enough leave for it, and no one has ever mentioned having a problem with the amount of leave I'm taking - I'm just nervous there is some kind of office etiquette I'm not aware of? I'm curious to know your thoughts :)

Saving leave causes financial issues for companies, they would much rather you spend it
