What is the name of your state? Georgia I am a flight attendant for a a major commercial airline and my husband (who's in the air force reserves) just received his orders for a 1 year deployment in Iraq. He'll be leaving in less than 1 month and I am trying to get some time off to spend with him and prepare ourselves emotionally, financially, and legally for his absence. My employer is telling me that I cannot have time off b/c it is over xmas. I did not plan for him to leave and cannot help the timing. I have a job in which I am gone for days at a time...I do not come home in the evening like a normal job. We have a lot to take care of and I want to be with him before he leaves. Do I have any rights?? Please help...thanks!
