Unofficial Holidays



I view today and Friday are unofficial holidays, meaning employees are expected to work, but many use the oddball Thursday off and combine it with two vacation days to get a five day weekend.

This is why the Chinese and Third World Nation are going to take us over any day now, we have become a nation of lazy, vacation taking bastards. Do you think a textile worker in Ding Chow spends much time planning how to use best use their vacation days and get the three day Casimir Pulaski holiday weekend? I bet not, since a hefty portion of them don't get to take holidays off and only get 4 days off per month. This country is getting soft, let's get back to what made his country great, slave labor!

Why am I so bitter? Since I have the least amount of tenure on our management team I get to "work" today and Friday. I put the word "work" in quotation marks because you know my productivity will go down and my blog posting will go up. I can't wait until we hire a new CEO so that he/she gets to work during these "holiday" periods. I bet their blog posts will be even worse than mine.

Watch this space, as next year this time I will make a post stating the exact opposite.
