I work for the feds and have been reminding myself that I have Monday off all week. I still think I'll wake up and go to work. Who celebrates MLK day?




How racist do you have to be to refuse a day off?  It could be "National Kill Whitey Day" and I'd gladly sleep in and barbeque.







Thanks for the new Sig line!









Now that you've mentioned it, it's a pretty good one.

Just checked my work email, and I have an email from my completely insane, anxiety ridden workaholic boss that details next weeks plans, starting on Monday (we have off).

Should I tell her, or let her figure it out on her own when Monday rolls around.?

it's not a real holiday. like your wiser boss, you should also ignore it, and be productive.

Paid company holiday.  

Though I suppose her telling me to come in that day is just yet more ammo for a potential harassment suit.

Better yet Sunday night put a sign on the door that says "out of business, closed until further notice".

State Holiday here.  So I am off.  I preferred when we had presidents day off in February.   Broke it up a little more between now and Memorial day a little better.  MLK day is too close to the Christmas holidays.

Not necessarily.  I used to work with a heavily union company that did not recognize MLK, but did recognize Good Friday.

Right, screw the boss.  What does the company running smoothly and staying in business have to do with your paycheck anyway.  These bosses of so foolish.  You will have the last laugh collecting that big fat pay check long after the company has closed down.
