For hourly workers, it's just an extra working day where you get paid for the hours you work. No great bonus there. Me, I'm kinda busy right now so I think I'll go into the office on family day, and since it's not a formal business day, I'll weat jeans, and my new silk screened 'Happy Dalton's a Liar Day' T-shirt.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01642404966624953226noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20283843.post-19214884851390717252008-02-01T18:33:00.000-05:002008-02-01T18:33:00.000-05:00Dalton is an idiot...our idiotIt's OK though...les...Dalton is an idiot...<BR/>our idiot<BR/>It's OK though...<BR/>less than 4 years til an electionAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20283843.post-63646006429844316762008-02-01T18:07:00.000-05:002008-02-01T18:07:00.000-05:00he is happily helping it to happen with this legis...<I>he is happily helping it to happen with this legislation.</I><BR/><BR/>Yup.

So if you're a federal or provincial liberal I guess I'm a non-person. Fine by me...where can I get a refund on my "I will not raise your taxes" contributions seeing as though I don't exist. <BR/><BR/>good idea ls, but while I have a really nice family we're not in any great hurry to DO any family stuff at the moment. Just finished all that stuff at Christmas, and Easter's in March. We don't need it thanks very much. <BR/><BR/>So, I'll just spend it like any other day. It's also no biggy for my teenager who has just had several snow days and really wants to get to school to start the next semester.<BR/><BR/>I have heard that the gov't quietly decreased the number of teaching days for the teacher unions so that they could wiggle the day off. Only a one year deal though. <BR/><BR/>I wonder if the gov't will now peel back one of the PA days they added?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20283843.post-91703913929972801922008-02-01T14:59:00.000-05:002008-02-01T14:59:00.000-05:00my husband's employer is not giving them Family Da...<I>my husband's employer is not giving them Family Day off. </I><BR/>Why not just take the day off?
