[nagdu] Cant do it

Unfortunately I think she's like the director or something of the place...
I'll find out soon. I just don't want this to get too wild and make things
awkward between the supervisor and myself, but then again that's just
something I'd have to deal with if it happens.
I personally think asking for time off to get a dog is a reasonable enough
request. What really gets to me is that the supervisor has a guide dog of
her own and I had my hopes up that she would understand.
Well sorry for the rambling. Thanks for all your help everyone!

Is there someone else you could talk to? Maybe whoever is above the
supervisor?
