Martin Luther King, Jr. Day (3rd Monday in January), Presidents' Day (3rd Monday in February), Memorial Day (last Monday in May), Labor Day (1st Monday in September), and Columbus Day (2nd Monday in October).

And in Texas the 3rd Monday in Jan is also Confederate Heroes Day

No matter how hard you work to get everything done, there will always be more to do. Value your personal time.

You may love your job but it won’t love you.

Don’t trust whitey

They don't care about you. You're disposable.

Wednesdays are the longest day of the week
Saturday is not long enough and Sunday is a shortest day of the week

So it seems ??

Your coworkers are not your friends.
Your management doesn’t care about you.

Trust no one
HR isn't there to protect you
No matter what you are expendable
60 hour weeks will never be recovered

Just retired.

A life without alarm clocks, weight of a Sunday thinking about upcoming work week, and right amount of/ hours of sleep…

Are glorious.

Employment is simply an exchange of labor for a disproportionate amount of pay.

Things that colleagues act like is so important, in reality, is not.

Makes sense. People frequent sit down restaurants on Fridays and eat a ton of fast food on Mondays.

Let me help here…

Most of corporate work / world is BS. Speaking from 30+ years worth of it in an IOC. Those who place their life and purpose in its hands are foolish.

Easy for me to say now that I am retired. But my heart screams this.

Almost every burner vacation day that I take is on a Monday. Far superior to taking off a Friday.

Working is something you do so you can continue to live. Most people forget to actually LIVE.
