Hierarchy tried to make me cancel my leave to attend a PFA, I chose not to cancel it and now they are trying to charge me. Where do i stand?? Heeeeelp

Unless things have changed majorly, leave is a privilege, not a right.

You normally stand outside the OCs office. You're in the shit.

No where! If you need to do a PFA then get it done. I'm sure if you tried you could have arranged to do it another time or come in during your leave to do it if you are local.

Not local, and had a holiday booked!

Was it authorised via JPA, if so print off and retain.
How much notice were you given to get to your unit?
Did you just piss off or have they phoned you to get back?


Have they warned you for orders yet?
EDIT: sorry, re read have you actually had the leave? As said, either you have a rigid CofC or theres a bit more gone on. I've known people to do a PFA with just a call to the gym a day or two before.

So what are you not telling us? Had other chances to do it but couldn't be arsed or failed it previously? in my experience there is usualy a bit more that goes on before somone gets told to cancel their leave for a PFA!

Thought it had to be for Operational reasons if your leave is going to be cancelled? (Thats just what I've heard)
If I was you I'd check out the JSP on leave and travel before proceeding and possibly getting in the deep poo!
Did you take out holiday insurance? That's what it's for, so you get your money back if you can't go.

If I were you I'd march smartly into the office drop kick the CSM over the filing cabinet and then wrap the necky OC around his desk!

I'll hold your coat......

It was authorised on JPA a month before hand, and was given 3 days notice to cancel. The PFA was done the day i returned from leave so that is now no longer an issue. Yes, been warned for orders!
