He would be very disappointed if he knew how his words were going to get twisted.

[Iron_Man]

Yes….

[Sparkie460]

Yes im working today. I don't take off for the little holidays like Columbus day or mlk day

[exitseven]

@my old boss has a rule of thumb. If the stock market was closed it was a day off.

[Sparkie460]

I only take the big holidays off, or at least I try to. Sometimes I get an emergency service call on the holiday

[exitseven]

Then you can charge them double time or is it double time and a half?

[Sparkie460]

No it's just double time with a 2 hour minimum

[exitseven]

I would go to work for that

[Sparkie460]

People always complain about the price but I'm one of the most reasonable electricians around.

[sage2021]

Well, I always wondered why when Veterans Day comes they have to to work on that day. After all, getting the day off for Veterans would be like saying thank you for your service.

I thought MLK day was a legal holiday. What do I know?

To answer your question, no sonny boy, this old lady gets the day off 🙂

[exitseven]

@sage2021 Have a good day off. I will be working to save the world for technology.

[sage2021]

@exitseven
Thank you sweetie ❣️ 🙄

[Paris13]

A classic Monday song!

[OlderAndWiser]

Yes, I am visiting a client in jail this morning (two counties away from my office,) then meeting with clients this afternoon.

[exitseven]

@OlderAndWiser. I hope rhe guy beats rhe rap

[OlderAndWiser]

This particular guy is not very bright and he readily admits to his guilt.

[exitseven]

Registered democrat?

[OlderAndWiser]

😀😀😀

[razelove]

I did have to work today, but ironically will probably be off tomorrow from roads and pipes freezing. Chemical plants aren't big on the paid days off lol

[JustinTheGreat]

Yup. I’m at work right now. It was busy today though so hopefully I made good money

[AviatorTom]

Today is a holiday for my company.

[DizzyDesii]

Im at work but slept most of my shift

[Sparkie460]

I want your job

[DizzyDesii]

@Sparkie460 its only this chill because our business isn't booming until the summer months

[RebelinSteel]

We made our Americans work today, sort of a penance lol. Seriously though, they do get a long weekend back later on in the shape of an extended Easter.

[douride2]

I wasn't aware it was a holiday down south. It's not a holiday in Canada.

[exitseven]

Just for people with government jobs. The rest of us have to work.

[douride2]

Yes we have a few of those types of holidays in Canada too.

[Juxtapose]

I bet he would be really proud of the current left that actively judges people by their skin color instead of the content of their character 🤣

[exitseven]

@he would be rocking a red MAGA hat

[matchrestore]

I don't have the day off but my kid doesn't have school so I'm working from home while also entertaining a 5 year old (who's mom grounded him from TV for a day last night... How convenient...)

[JacobJordan]

I don't work anymore but yeah I would and I also I don't much care if it is a holiday or not

[Jmmmfi4]

I WISH... IM LAID OFF FOR THE WINTER

[exitseven]

I get it.

[Simslover92]

I was off today! Thank goodness because I got to spend two days with my long distance boyfriend instead of just the one day as usual.

[Red_Arrow]

Since I do not work for the federal government I had to work today as normal.

[Fireguy17]

Yeppers, I forgot all about that.
Good thing I didn't spen the time to get my mail ready.

[LiamJHayden]

I worked because I have a huge client going to trial on Tuesday, but I gave my employees the day off with pay.

[love_conquers_lust]

What the hell is that thing in that picture?

[KittygosMeoWW]

Nope and my family is watching my baby so I can get my nails done and have a day to myself.

[wiltingrosepetal]

Yeah I was cleaning pools earlier with my dad

[Brady]

My job is opn. I park cars 4 a car rental place but I hav Mon.'s off so no.

[Liketotry]

I’m retired so I don’t have to work on MLK day.
