Although I am most definitely not Christian, I have always had an appreciation for the Christmas holiday because the spirit of the holiday is both fun and humane.
I understand a lot of people have off work this week?
Heh. I had off Wednesday the 25th, but starting July 4th I'll pretty much be working all holidays.
Someone's gotta run the plant, since poop don't stop for holidays! ;)
We get double-time, though, and as a government agency, we also get like one holiday a month (Good Friday, Presidents Day, MLK Day, Columbus Day, etc).
Anyway, this week has been a good one. All the white helmets (management folk) have taken off most, or all, of the week, and there's basically nobody here today but us grunts.
I've got a three-day weekend coming up, personal day on Monday. I can watch the Eagles stomp Dallas at one of my North Philly corner rowhouse dive bars, and then sleep in late on Monday.
And then I'm back home on New Years' for the Mummers Parade.
