Wow, I've never worked anywhere where we got the whole day for Good Friday! I think one job we had a half-day.
Joyce: You don't think it's too obvious? I think I look like I have a cat on my head. Buffy: But a very well groomed cat. Joyce: Well that's a comfort.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I've never gotten Good Friday off. But many of our clients do, so things are often slow for us on Good Friday.

I have Friday AND Monday as holidays. (Also I'm off on Tuesday.)

We get "spring holiday" which haaaaaapens to always coincide with good Friday. But we don't get Presidents' Day or MLK day.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
I don't think I've ever had it off in any other job, which is presumably why I forgot I had it off last year. Assuming I did, because who remembers anything?

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
Wait- today is Thursday?!? I can't believe I thought it was Wednesday. We usually get off early, but I will probably go to the theatre and sand clothes.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I'm always pretty surprised to have Good Friday off, I don't think I have anywhere else. But I'll take it!
I had no reason to know when Easter was for a long time, since Spring Break in college was just the third week of March, pretty much. I had a funny conversation with one of my coworkers the other day - he was saying he grew up LDS and they didn't do Good Friday or "Fat Thursday" or saints, so I gave some Catholic and Orthodox the low down, probably confused more than it clarified. Extra funny to me, though, because it was about a day after we discussed how I didn't have anything planned for this weekend and Passover is still a month off. I have layers.
Sand clothes?

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
I've only had Good Friday off when working for European companies (like now).

The fuck?! Because even in 2016, the word of one man is clearly more reliable than the word of 3 women. I wonder how many women need to testify under oath before a man's singular version of events doesn't outweigh their combined testimony?
Although perhaps I should be more circumspect, maybe the judge wasn't quite as reprehensible as he comes across in that article.
