Uniform Holiday!
Posted in Half days… who thought of them? Seriously!
Why cant we all get the same two days off! I dont want to work half a day on thursday! I think the people who work half a day on thursday get the short end of the stick! Because people who work in Banks and Financing they get Friday and Saturday off. And some people get Thursday and Friday off. But this half day thing really gets to me sometimes!
I think they should make all working holidays Friday and Saturday if they want to be uniform with financial institutuions and give us a damn break! Anyone else think it should be this way? Everything is working fine in the other countries with everyone having saturday and sunday off!

I would say that only financial institutes should get Friday and Saturday off while everything else gets Thursday and Friday!

Stallion: the reason Im saying is move everything to friday saturday is so people could meet up with all their family members.. a lot of my cousins and people i know work for banks. So just to time it all together. And the traffic is just as bad on a saturday as it is any other morning. So I dont think the traffic will make a difference. The only thing is the schools! Well at least two days holiday!

In the UAE effective september the govt orgs are gonna have Fri & Saturdays off ..and soon the private sector will follow.
