  1. Who Cares? My boss in his wisdom has decided to close the office for TWO days! YAY! I won't be going either, but I'm REALLY looking forward to two paid days off that don't involve needles, pain or nausea....

  2. I'm just bitter. I'm casual and work different sites. One within Bris city limits and one in Ipswich. I have two unpaid shifts off coz they have them different days.

  5. Isn't Big Bad Al Day a Public Holiday? It should be a 4 day weekend.

  6. I'm a stay at home mother. 14 hour days, on call all night, my duties are extensive and at times neverending. This is 7 days a week, 52 weeks a year. No holidays. No pay.

    I do love my job. My kids are my life.

    But when the Ekka rolls around, I can't help but reminisce about the days when I had a salary and a day off. Oh, well. You get that.
