Who's got MLK Day off?
I do, but I'm in the education racket. What do people in the real world do?

6. Hi KitchenWitch,
Ain't that the truth?

I don't think there's mail delivery on Monday.
Man, we've had so many delays with the mail, this month!

28. I work with racists
We're off on Monday, and boy were they laying it on thick about having a day off honoring Dr. King. They stopped before I could stop what I was doing and tell them to shut up. They need white hoods to go with their white collars. Jeez!

27. My staff is off but I have to work
Crap. I'll be working all day tomorrow too while they enjoy the good life. I've had only two full weekends since September started. Lately I wished I got paid by the hour. I would be a rich man if that were the case.
