Holidays in the middle of the week
They just never seem to work out for me.....Now I've got to spend the rest of the day convincing myself it's not Monday!!!!!

It was fun with a small business. Productivity for a split week sucked. Whenever a holiday fell on Thursday it just made sense to cave in to a 4 day holiday weekend..............nothing worthwhile ever happened on that Friday between, and the crew morale benefitted from the long weekend.Your Uncle Bob, Senior Geezer Curmudgeon
It's much easier to promise someone a "free" ride on the wagon than to urge them to pull it.
Luck occurs when preparation and opportunity converge.

I always loved it when holidays came mid week. longer holiday for the self employed here also. Now I found an even better way however. I sold the damn business (after 31 years) the 1st of May and now every day is a saturday.

I don't know why it seems odd to me, every day is a weekend to an old retireded guy. But, yeah, yesterday felt like Saturday to me, and today feels like some other day besides Thursday.

I hope you're joking. It would make the point of the celebration point less. If they do anything, I say the make MLK day a national holiday. Half the people get it off, but not this guy. LOL Originally Posted by IC2
