You've way exaggerated this. My experience has been the opposite, top 80% get almost everything they want.
Especially when it comes to getting certain exact days off peppered throughout the month and not some exact pattern. Like if you've got kids on different sports teams, holiday events on weekends or middle of the week meetings with the schools. Works great.
