Happy Libation Day...er, Labor Day!



That's what I plan to do.


If you don't celebrate Labor Day in your neck of the woods, take the day off anyway. Don't worry about your boss -- I'll write you a note.

Here:

Dear _____________ (fill in boss's name),

____________ (fill in your name) won't be coming to work today because (duh!) it's Labor Day somewhere, and everybody needs a break now and then. I'm sure you understand, compassionate employer that you are. 

Thank you,
Linda, your employee's blogging buddy

There. That ought to do it. Yes, even for you self-employed people -- don't let your boss be a jerk, either. ;)

See ya Wednesday!

Enjoy your day off, Linda! I'll be mentally clinking my glass with yours! (I'll be having a martini, of course.)

What a jerk my employer is, looking over my shoulder while I surf the Net.
She keeps telling me to get back to my wip.
Oh, crap now I'm talking to myself.

Love the note!
Clicking your glass with my longneck :)

What a terrific note. Have fun! It's now afternoon, so I believe it's time to rack the pool balls and whip up a batch of mojitas.

I'm trying a new recipe that I found in a novel for white sangria. Well, I would be if I didn't live in a stupid dry county and I wasn't too lazy to drive an hour to buy some booze.
So in my imagination I'm drinking white sangria on my day off.
Oh, whoops, I don't have a day off.
Nevermind.

Always a reason to celebrate! Have a good one, Linda:)

Happy Libation Day, Linda. [g]

I don't think that note will work on my boss - it's got long words in it.

I'm kinda thinking we need a Day-After-Labor Day holiday, too.

Darn it Linda, where were you 25 years ago when I was trying to get out of PE?

Linda G. said...

Thanks, everyone, for stopping by for a drink. Even if you ultimately had to work, that probably made it more bearable. For you if not your boss. ;)

With an attitude like that we'd make you an honourary Aussie!
