Working, but we have "liberal leave" today, which probably means the Sergeant Major will let us cut out at noon.

Working but traffic was very light for the commute. I wish it was that light everyday.

I'm in. they took away our "good fri" holiday after people complained they didn't get any multitude of other religious holidays off. So now we get nothing. Love it when people get what they ask for. They just didn't realize they were asking to work on good fri. LOL

Friday and Monday were made holiday's for "us" the workers.

The way my shifts work this week, I work both. I'll be paid extra for Monday but not tonight as the holiday is defined as 07-19. I think if we work on any hour of a defined holiday we should get paid just like everyone else. Union/employer stuff.

My weekend is screwed. I would have half of Saturday off - I was going to have Sunday off but my husband (much like Tmall I imagine) has duty on Sunday - so I wont see him this weekend. So... I am working for a girl so she can drive home to see her family.


My turn around is going to suck large. Pregnancy is making 12 hour shifts feel much longer.

I guess being a state facility they stay away from the more religious holidays. In addition to accumulating vacation time we get 10 in lieu of holiday days. if you work or dont ask to be off that day you get an extra day off to use whenever.

Nows the down time for those days, we had 2 days in feb but now no more till memorial day.
