Not just Friday Freedom. Actual Freedom as I now get 5 of the next 6 weeks off!
Boom that's crazy vacation time!
40 days per annum as standard. Earned 20 I’ve the last 4 months working overtime as it were. Always a nice feeling. :)
Does that count for sick time too
No. Completely separate.
Americans are pointlessly overworked.
Not removing until John Elway is fired.

There's just something to be said for investing a little in your employees' happiness, or even just sanity.

And with it, over-managed. My new boss is just now taking his first real vacation because he had to build up the time in close to 2 years, and he's only gone for a week and a half. For his underlings, FUCKIN' A, this is a vacation for us too, wooooo! I'm telling that to everyone, fuck off with your request, I may be here but this is vacation for me too, I don't have to deal with his non-sense and orders, fuck off. If he was gone for 5 fuckin' weeks? Good God I might prop a keg right in my cube and plenty of others would pay for it. :D

Can't, in a stuck situation (no car, no speaky spanish, only retail part time jobs in area and if I take one I'm stuck walking home in this ghetto gang infested neighborhood at 10 O'clock at night, etc.) and my stuff is clearly not in any demand. I can't even get Tee shirt sites to want to print anything I've done.

are there any movies that help to pick you up? are there any that help you to feel grounded, to help you to keep perspective on things? are there any that are cathartic for you?
