Wanted--A Day Off!

So you want the day off. Let's take a look at what you are asking for, again!

There are 365 days per year available for work. There are 52 weeks per year, in which you already have two days off per week, leaving 261 days available for work. Since you spend 16 hours each day away from work, you have used up 170 days. Leaving only 91 days available for you to put your nose to the grindstone. You definitely spend 30 minutes each day on coffeebreaks, accounting for 23 days each year, leaving only 68 days available. With a one hour lunch period each day, you have used up another 46 days, leaving only 22 days available for work. You normally spend 2 days (only 2!!) per year on sick leave. This leaves you only 20 days available for work. We are off for 5 holidays a year, so your available working time is down to 15 days. We generously give you 14 vacation days per year, which leaves only 1 day available for work. I'll be damned if you're going to take that day off!

Did you work it out? Want to double-check it? Ok, do it again.

Can you tell that it was written in the year 10bc? I remember where this 'Day Off' diddy came from.... the job that I had then.....and, it was 34 years ago. If I did not tell you how old it is, would you have put it together that: ha! ha! 2, two sick days a YEAR, preposterious. How good you have it today, 5 holidays per year? But, most of all, how fascinating is the human brain, that I could file through 34 years of information, and put this together again! How would these statistics stack up with jobs today and the real-time-off-of-work math?

I do realize, what it is that I am 'supposed' to be writing about and why, however, I have always had a little deviation about me, and just wanna do my thing for a bit. Ann
