I was talking to someone a week or two ago about an employee who got
into trouble because he took a day off at short notice to move house
(one of those occasions where they didn't know the completion date until
the last minute). The amount of leeway in such things does seem to vary
a lot from one industry to another.


I'm sure most employers would allow it if they were warned in advance.
I had to do it a while ago and the company were fine.
It must be difficult though with industries which are tightly manned
such as, of course, LUL.
