Holiday


Guest DannyJay

Recommended Posts

I take two weeks off from the Saturday before and it is an unwritten rule in my office that no-one is allowed hols at Glasto time (only allowed one person off at a time)!

I'm lucky though that no-one else at my work goes to Glasto - in fact they all think I am mad because I take it as my summer holidays!! :blink:

Apparently I can put in for holiday now, which is news to me! So me and the other guy in my team are putting it in tomorrow, I'm just nervous because if one person is on holiday that normally means that no-one else can be off over the same time!!

the tough question is how long to take off? I don't get enough holiday imo as it is :blink:

I work nights so it's tough, if I work tuesday night I could leave early weds morning, but i'd have had no sleep and feel pretty crappy - but taking tuesday off means another day from my holidays gone!!!

how many days is everyone going to take off?

Mine's an either/or situation in that out of 7 of us on my watch only 1 can be off, but with it not being school holidays I usually expect to get it. However I can't even apply until at least January as we have to negotiate between the 7 of us

That said, I will be off. I'm not saying what I do as I and everyone I work with are consumate professionals, but this is the one time of the year when work can kiss my considerable ass, if need be.

Like I said, I *will* be off

I'll be booking a half day on the Tuesday, then off weds-Mon and back to work, albeit a bit groggy on the Tuesday after.

    • A few snaps from Sunday, which was huge fun, plus Happy Mondays, Radio Free Alice, Fratellis and Pale Waves. We didn't stay for The Streets, as after 3-4 songs it felt so downbeat compared to the rest of the day, and i've got another hectic week at work incoming.
    • It was fine, just hectic! The youngsters were mostly very well-behaved. The weather was a real bonus, although surprisingly chilly evenings - I guess it's the altitude - and the area between sound and main stage was a massive dust bowl.
    • Ive always had a lot of time for the mighty Shots, a pal of mine used to commentate on their games for Sussex Counties radio and he'd sneak me into the ground for midweek games, and we'd even nick a tea and a plate of sandwiches. This is back in the George Borg days, so um . . a little while ago now 
    • Hmm, weird- Rush are playing the Co-Op live on the 12th and the 14th, and Megadeth are the meat in that sandwich - so they have to roll everything in, roll it out again, only to roll it back in and then out - here's hoping for a prog hokey-cokey with all manner of bizarre time signatures and drum solos! 
    • Depends what you mean by seeing 'more stuff' about it.    I definitely don't trust the original Sun article.
