Didn't get the public holiday last week anyway (yay for working in higher-ed!)... I've already hit my tolerance limit and have only been here 3 hours!

I need more coffee...

We got it for the first time ever due to new EBA. Creates weirdness over the New Year etc break as a result though

Yeah I bet it would! I definitely DON'T miss having to burn half my AL for the Christmas shutdown like in my former life.

Thanking my past self for booking a random day off on Thursday
