In or for?
I have a very busy work schedule till July, but I am planning to go holiday in June. My boss knew my planning and told me straight that:"Linda, please don't make any holiday planning for June ?" My question is should it be "Linda, don't......planning in June?

"For" means you are planning before June, about June. "In" means you will wait until June and you will make your plans during the month of June. "For" is better for your example.

Note: There is nothing wrong with "till." It's not an abbreviation for "until." They words mean the same thing. No need to change "till" to "until" or " 'till."
You boss knew about your "plan," not your "planning."
Sashi - yes, and in fact, traditional grammar says you should use a comma before a conjunction that joins two independent clauses. For short sentences, this is often
