A Day Off
| So you want a day off. Let's take a look at what you are asking for: |
|
|
| There
are 365 days per year available for work. There are 52 weeks per year in
which you already have 2 days off per week, leaving 261 days available for
work. Since you spend 16 hours each day away from work, you have used up 170
days, leaving only 91 days available. |
You spend 30 minutes each
day on coffee break, which counts for 23 days each year, leaving only 68 days
available. With a 1 hour lunch each day, you used up another 46 days, leaving
only 22 days available for work.

You normally spend 2 days per year on sick leave.

This leaves you only 20 days
per year available for work. We are off 5 holidays per year, so your available
working time is down to 15 days. We generously give 14 days vacation per year,
which leaves only 1 day available for work and I'll be darned if you are going
to take that day off!
