My U gives us Thurs, Fri and Mon as holidays. Someone has to work though, because the library is open and it's so close to finals, so I'm here. Blah! (But it gives everyone else the long weekend, and I hope they remember when I'm out most of the summer.)
I didn't create the troll. I didn't date the troll. In fact I hate the troll. I helped deflate the troll-- All done.

Would be a regular old 2 day weekend here if I weren't taking vacation. I am not sure if it hold true anymore, but commercial banks used to get a bunch of holidays - I thought I would be getting in on that. Trading side banks, nsm - stupid market always being open.

Actually, tomorrow is one of those weird days where the markets are closed, but the banks are open.

see? STUPID. They can't even follow their own rules. And our counterparts in Europe get approx 800 days off a year.

Our UK and Canada offices are closed Friday and Monday, but not the US. It is VERY unfair.

But you guys get to deal with private insurance instead of the government for health care and you can acquire handguns more easily so it all balances out.

So... you're saying I should threaten HR with a gun until they give us a 4-day weekend?

I think y'all should have Friday off at the very least.

Look I'm just saying you have options.
