i can have a 4 day weekend - shouLd i take it?
most of my company took friday after turkey day off. i've been pressured to take it off as weLL so the boss doesn't have to come in too. i'm torn between having a day to sit around pLaying video games, or being an ass and hanging onto a vacation day.

1. Can you work from home?
I'm going to do that tomorrow and Friday, saves me from the collosial ride home tomorrow afternoon - and the van doesn't go on Friday.

11. Wednesday before T-day is the biggest hook up night of all.
If you have to make a choice - go out Wednesday night instead of Thursday.

14. True, but dealing with the family hungover SUCKS!
I'll get mine Friday morning. And after dealing with the family all day, I'll NEED a drink.

3. Hmm. Could you get DU if you stayed home?
That would make or break the deal for me. ;)

4. Depends on how much you hate your boss
I'm torn on this one... but i'd probably choose video games!

8. Sniffa, I would recommend taking the day off
Because life is short. Do something different. If you have a camera, take a walk around your town/city and take some pictures. Post some here. Enjoy the gift of a day without obligation. We all work too hard at times. So have a long weekend and enjoy!

Four day weekends are awesome, and that's a fact. Unless you really need to save that vacation day, in which case I suppose you could go in to work. But seriously you shoudl take the four day weekend. 3DO
