Trying to settle on vacation time

Monday, May 30:

Koodiorjatyttö (by email): Can I have an (unpaid) vacation at time A and time B? If these are too close together, then A is the one I'd rather move.

Wednesday, June 1:

Koodiorjatyttö (by email, after having recieved no answer): So, what about the vacation?
PointyHairedBoss (by email): I'll decide next week.

Monday, June 6:


Koodiorjatyttö (by email): Do you think you can decide at least on the B-part today? I gotta decide on the plane tickets tomorrow.
PointyHairedBoss (by email): I'll try.

PointyHairedBoss leaves without answering.


Koodiorjatyttö (by phone): Sorry to bother you, but what about the vacation?
PointyHairedBoss (by phone): I am afraid I can't answer you now. Gotta talk to our salespeople. I think the customer did not like you much, I am not sure we want to keep you.

(That is after the sales manager told me that everything is OK with me and the customer.)

OK, out of 4 conversations with the PointyHairedBoss so far she only threatened to fire me in 2.
