jarich, thank you for your reply.

i pasted your code in my $SIG{'__DIE__'} adn here is it. 
local $SIG{'__DIE__'} =
sub
{
    my $my_today_int = $today_int;
    my $my_no_call_requested_days = $no_call_requested_days;
    my $my_i = $i;
    my $my_user_id = $user_id;
    my @dump = ();

    # Just grabbing the values of these so that
    # strict will cope with them.
    push @dump, $_[0], "";
    push @dump, Dumper($my_today_int, $my_i, $my_user_id), "";
    push @dump,  Dumper($my_no_call_requested_days), "";
    {
        use strict;
        my @today = @{$my_no_call_requested_days->{$my_today_int}};
        push @dump,   "today: " . Dumper(@today), "";

        my $ref = $today[$my_i];
        push @dump,  "ref: " . Dumper($ref), "";

        my $employee_id = $ref->{'employee_id'};
        push @dump,  "employee_id: [$employee_id]", "";

        if($employee_id eq $my_user_id)  # should be "=="
        {
            push @dump,  "They are the same!", "";
        }
    }
