+--- Thread: Do you have Monday off? (/showthread.php?tid=124865)
Re: Do you have Monday off? - Numo - 10-07-2011
I teach on Mondays.
I just tried to find a short video about Columbus Day to show to my students, but they all seemed to be about either parades or excoriating him as a vicious, racist pig (it's true that he wasn't the benign person many of us learned about in elementary school). None of the videos appealed to me, so I gave up.

Working since we are open Monday and only two staff work evenings anyways. I will get a comp day to use later.

The crazy ones get indigent people's day off instead.

Having a Holiday is a good thing...Have a Great and safe Road Trip ~!~:thumbsup:
Associating positive things about America and Columbus is B.S. sad to say...:priate:

I live very near to one of the largest Native Indian reservations in the country. They don't think fondly of Columbus or Columbus Day.

Re: Do you have Monday off? - CJsNvrUrly - 10-07-2011
I said yes, but only because I'm unemployed.

I said yes because I'm retired. Still, unless it's raining, I'll be "working" in the yard getting ready for winter.
