Working on a Bank Holiday

Post by Shug » Mon Aug 28, 2006 12:04 pm

I'm not sure it officially is a Scottish bank holiday, but the banks and post offices are closed anyway.....

So, who else is in the office, when they could be out in the sun with the roof off? :cry:

Not me that is for sure...........

I do not think it is a proper Bank Holiday in Scotland, though of course they will look for any excuse not to open.

Also at work. It isnt a Scottish holiday but most offices round here are shut.

Holidays are for the lazy anyway.

I'm in, even though lots of mates are off. :evil: The only bank holidays I get are Xmas, New Year and Easter (2 days at each), but I get more flexible leave to make up for it, so I guess it all balances out.

At least the roads were a bit quieter than usual due to people being off.
