At work right now they’re denying all the new vacation requests because we’ve got to make a bunch of products for customer. But they at least told us when the order was placed, so everybody took a vacation before the rush or planned one afterwards.
It sounds like poor planning on behalf of management to me. Unless you work in some kind of micro enterprise with <5 employees, good planning should leave sufficient capacity to enable at least some vacation time to continue.

That is good management and good team mentality.

A little bit. But mistakes happen, it’s a huge order, and they were transparent about it. I can accept that so long as it stays infrequent.
Depends on the timing.
Random time? Sure.
However, there’s a tendency for certain times to have a lot of people to take off the same time. December, holidays, time that schools are out.
