September 4 - Monday - Labor Day

Not even sure if we got MLK day off or not. What sucks the most is since March it has only been me and 2 other people so actually getting to take a vacation ins\'t even an option. So I will more than likely end up at the end of the year with like 10 vacation days unused and they don\'t carry over and we dont get paid out for them either. I do get paid pretty good but still sucks ass

We do get time off at mine also, they call them \'floating hollidays\' and we get 9 of them. Basically, it\'s them saying you have to be here on xmas, but you can take a day off with pay like an extra vacation day and call it xmas at some other point in the year. It\'s cool that they do it, but sometimes you\'d rather be off to be with family on a holiday rather than just an extra vacation day.
But then again, I get paid to watch sports all day. It would probably be a sweat gig if I really cared one way or another about the outcome of the games. Oh well, can\'t win them all.

holidays rarely equal a day off for me
but it does mean a better pay rate
-
I hear you Paul....must be nice to have a "holiday" off
(Although, my family "thinks" that I am on "vacation" all the time)
Yea, I get that one too. My favorite is "Why can\'t you do (misc job), you\'re off all afternoon. We all have to work and wont have any time."
Um, I work too, I just go in 5 hours earlier than the rest of you. Why don\'t you just stay up till 11pm and do it?
Ah, life at a 24 hour buisness. Good times.
-
i got the day off, but my office celebrates VJ day (Victory over Japan) to so i can\'t really say anything
-
What is this "w" thing you speak of??? :hscratch:
It\'s what everyone not living off of their girlfriends paycheck does while you\'re sleeping all day. Yea, I said it. :thechase:
:wah:
No rest for my office on Monday.
:sadban:

lol, if that was for me...
ya a little exaggerated, maybe you can clearify if your jewish, or a little more knowlegable on their holiday dates...but i was working for one this time last year, and i remember, like october/novemberish was, DROP everything, we\'ve got 4 days off!!
-
have you ever heard dane cooks skit on exaggerating?
-
If you work for jews, this time of the year is great, every other week your getting some different holiday off.

I love you

No Monday classes at Fairfield University this week. For a few of my housemates who have Tuesday and Fridays off, that means five day weekend (starting this past Friday and ending this coming Tuesday) followed by a two day week. For me it means no Pop Culture class... woo freakin\' hoo.
It\'s all good though, my only Tuesday class is Television Comedy. We\'re doing The Honeymooners and Abbott & Costello this week.

yea, I\'m off on mondays normally, but otherwise, the downside to a 24 hour buisness is you don\'t get off on holidays unless it falls on your weekend day.
In other words, unless you have wednesday thursday or thursday friday off as your weekend days, you work every thanksgiving.
Enjoy your time off you damn free loaders! :finger:
