Are you getting the day off on Monday?

[Bob]

It’s been a hell of a long time since I posted a poll, and maybe never on my phone, so I’ll probably RiS this up, but I’m looking for a quick poll of who is/isn’t getting the day off.

 

I assumed it would be a given unless you’re in emergency services but apparently it’s optional for businesses and ours is currently swayed towards “not” and we’ve been asked to see what our clients are doing, and I thought I’d ask you layabouts too.

[Harry's Lad]

I'm retired but Mrs HL works in a school so is getting the day off.

Yeah, thanks for that Betty.

 

[skend04]

Yep. Had the email this morning from the MD to confirm it.

[Mook]

We should find out today but I'm 99% certain we'll get the day off.

 

I've got Friday off as a holiday so a nice long weekend looking likely. I think I deserve it after how much I'm being put out at the moment living next door to Holyrood/St Giles.

[Creator Supreme]

Offices closed on day of funeral but that was when they were expecting a Saturday or Sunday funeral.

 

Either way, I'm working from home, stick your day off you fucking parasites!

[Jose Jones]

Nah, next Thursday.

[A Red]

I shall be in Benidorm.

I work shifts and was due to be off anyway. 
 

I’ve volunteered to work. 

[Pete]

Presume so.  Hopefully it's a dry day and I can fuck off on my bike for the day and ignore the world for a few hours. 
I was off work last week so missed the work discussion on Teams but fuck me logging on today you'd think some of these folks knew her personally. 

[Rico1304]

We were supposed to be having a charity football match. The bloke organising it is pulling his hair out, it’s now been cancelled twice.  Once because of a heat wave in Wigan and now because the Queen died.  

[suzy]

I had booked the day off anyway as it’s our wedding anniversary! Hopefully I get a day’s holiday back in lieu.

This. No word yet, but I expect so.

[stringvest]

I'm in Spain anyway.  I've already retrieved a day back from my holiday spend.

Think I'd rather be at the funeral 

[Chip Butty]

Curve ball, I'm off on the sick till Tuesday 20th(cough) I'm hazarding a guess and saying I'll get it back in lieu?

Just had a word with our HR manager and he confirmed it's going to be a normal Bank Holiday.

 

Which is nice.

[dockers_strike]

Where's the option of every day's effectively a holiday when you're retired?

[Bobby Hundreds]

I hope so. Nice 4 day week before I fuck off to Laganas and dip my balls into shallow waters.

going to spend a few days with the wife's sister in little englander land, but bookending it with three days in Granada and three in Seville.  I'll be in Granada on Monday.

She sounds nice!

Ours is a weird one as we have two day shifts. Mon-Thurs and Tues-Fri.

 

It's usually a case of if you're on M-T and it's bank holiday, you get the Monday off but you have to work T-F as those on T-F obviously don't get the Monday off.

 

I'm off all next week (I'm on M-T), so I would assume my Monday off will be moved to Friday and I won't lose or gain any days.
