Dont know. But.... This weekend, on Fri actually, i took ferry from new london ct to orient pt , li, ny. I was outside on ferry when a woman said its a beautiful day, and i agreed as it was. She said she was glad because she was a photographeron her way to photo wedding. In the hamptons. Further says, she just got a call a while ago( it was about 930, 10am), she just got phone call where to go. She wld get further instructions when she got yhere.

Later, i realuzed, I NEVER ASKED HER WHO IT WAS!! So i winder whi git married fri in a posh hush hush wedding? Anyone? And clearly i will tighten my spy skills for future!
Start your own practice and work for yourself, Enty, that's where the 3 day weekend is.
I had high blood pressure from age 17 through 47, till I got married and started working with my husband in his business. Now we work according to our energy levels. If we're feeling great, we'll put in super long hours. If we need a day off, we take it. We work from home so there is no commute time.
Now my blood pressure is a bit below normal. I'm well rested for the first time in my adult life, even though I'm working as much as I ever did, but it's according to my own internal clock.
@califblondy, I also do the 9/80 schedule, but mine never seems to align with Monday holidays--it's still nice because I get three 3-day weekends in a row that way.
I'm all for puttin mandatory 4 day work weeks on the ballot. 3 day weekends offer the opportunity to actually have a day off! I hate going to events (snot-nosed kiddie parties, cookouts, baptisms, etc...) when all I want to do is binge-watch whateverthefuck show in my PJs! 3-day weekends would allow for two days of annoying events and one day to actually relax. Vote Snootches for President! I'd never forget the little people.
I got blindsided by my BF of 5 1/2 yrs yesterday - I could have used another day for sure. Dumped unceremoniously. I've been trying to keep it together all day, & not doing a very good job.
Carlos Slim (the second richest guy in the world) said that everyone should work 3 days a week, 11-12 hours, and work into their 70s. I think that would suck, quite frankly. I could do a 4 day work week, but I really wouldn't want to work past 60-62.
Hmmm. Where's the big blind of the day?
ReplyDeleteIt ended 24 hr ago..

Anyway, you asked, so that's my answer. :-)
I work 9/80 work schedule so every other week is a three day weekend and when a Monday holiday falls right, it's a four day werkend. Yay.

ReplyDeleteI can't complain today is my first day back after a week in St. Maarten. I'm having a little work shock though. ..

ReplyDeleteI have a 3 day weekend coming up at the end of this week. It's BC Day, celebrating our Province.
ReplyDeleteComing up this weekend. Doesn't make a difference to me, though. Every day is exactly like the one before. I rarely know what day of the week it is.
ReplyDeleteNext Weekend in Switzerland. Fri. Aug. 1 is National Holiday.
ReplyDeleteYou're welcome...
