I work for a software company and was really surprised to get an email that today would be a holiday. Sucks that I didn't know about it before as I likely would've planned to do something today instead of doing laundry and cleaning my apartment.

Lots of people have today off.

Not me though, & that's good, as it means OT pay for me. :awe:

Wait, why are people getting a free day today? I'm hoping the government employed union workers aren't enjoying a nice day off, not that it'll be much different than a day's work for them.

I am off today. It's a furlough day.

Worked Monday and 1/2 day Tuesday.
Wednesday was a Holiday.
Thursday I used a banked Furlough day.
Friday is a Furlough day.
Saturday is my regular day off
Sunday is my regular day off. But, I am flying to San Diego for business so it is an OT day.

4 day weekend

I have today off.

My friend just called and said his wife just opened a file sent anonymously from MSN messenger.

Lovely.

Working today, but it's my last full day. Only a couple half days next week, a few days off, then FINALLY starting a new job.

My current job is sales, though, so today there isn't much to do. I'll be working on getting my Texas Hold 'Em win % above 75%.

Not I.

Most people are off though, so it will probably be pretty dead around here. I'll just surf the net all day.

I'm off today as well. Not because of some whacky religious day...but because Friday is a regular day off for me. (3 day weekends every week!)
