I do not play the I cheer for my political team so here is my take that nobody cares about.
To me I think taking an international trip is ridiculous and the higher up the political food chain the worse it gets. Some low level schlep, who cares, they are in the same category as my uncle who went to Vegas a month ago because he is going through a mid\old life crisis. Now when it comes to someone at the level where they are making the rules, then it gets to much more of a blatant slap in the face type of action.
One thing is that these people probably put in their request for time off from X date to X date and it got approved. I know I have submitted many of these and never has it had a field to say where I was going. So I can forgive the supervisor for not knowing where the employee was going, whether it was Nenshi or Kenney. Now in this time maybe they should have followed up and asked where they were going, but they probably assumed they were not that dumb.
I cannot remember where I saw it but I saw the request that Tracy Allard put in and it did not say where she was going. So with this I can say Kenney may not have known where she went and it is not fully on his shoulders. Allard should have known better and not gone to Hawaii, I put that fully on her. The others, I have no idea
