Title: Working on Mardi Gras sucks
Post by: Akala on February 24, 2009, 01:26:33 PM
Now I know how everyone else feels. :'(
This is the first Mardi Gras I've ever worked. I was supposed to cut out at noon and still see a few parades, but they sprung a conference call on me for 1:30, so I'll probably miss everything. Around 90% of the city gets a holiday today, and I keep getting calls from people asking where I am/having fun/rubbing it in.
Still, w/2G2D and everything, I guess it's better to be sober and employed than the alternative.
**edit** Sorry for LJ, I'm the only one here in my office. No one to bitch to but the boss. :(

It should really be a national holiday.
