So if they block leave for seemingly no good reason I'd be worried.

This sort of links back to posts made on the previous page. Small family business, small staff numbers. If someone is on holidays, then they have to work harder, or things simply don't get done. So, it's in their best interest to not incentivize leave. I always feel guilty asking for leave, I can see the boss's cogs turning when I do. And it's always a bad time to ask, as in it's school holidays, Christmas rush, Spring rush, winter bare root season, potting season................................... doesn't matter when I ask for it, its inconvenient.
And after 41 years in business, I highly doubt they have ever had to pay long service leave to an employee.
