how to cancel early release request
I've applied for my resignation recently, and my Manager kindly offered to relieve me early, I acknowledged the mail with a reply that I'm interested in it and will confirm about it once I can plan a date. but the proposal got forwarded before I gave my date, and the last working day they stated is very early as per my current situation, I need at least another 3 weeks to prepare and support myself, any suggestions please , how do I extend / cancel the early release ?

Oh, wow....Happens a lot, yaar. But it’s better to be honest and ask for the time you need. Don’t want to leave unfinished business, right?

Have you had a conversation with your manager about your workload? Maybe they can extend the date

This is tricky bro. But honesty is the best policy...If you need those 3 weeks, just talk it out with your manager.... Have you already shared why you need the extension?

Honestly it’s great that they offered early release, but 3 weeks extra to sort out things sounds reasonable...Have you tried explaining the situation to HR?

Hmm, this is tough. Maybe you can negotiate a middle ground where you’re still leaving early but have enough time to prepare. Does anyone have experience with that kind of negotiation?

Oh no...Early release can be a double-edged sword...Maybe there’s a way to negotiate an extra week or two?
