Holiday

When your close teammate decides to take an indefinite holiday, what can you say? You want to respect and support his decision, but at the same time you have to deal with that anxiety, uncertainty and wonder where it is leading? what does it all mean?

The normal work contract says, you can have 4 weeks holiday each year. Does it imply that he will lose his job if he takes more than 20 days? I don't know the answer, but I just know it hurts.
