Have to love working for a major corporation that observes exactly three major holidays a year. (unless your high level management) This memorial day weekend will be spent working till 10pm every night. (including Monday) What is this world coming to?

Just about every service profession out there will be working through the weekend and on Monday as well, a lot of them much later than you.

But I suppose you've never eaten at a restaurant or ordered pizza on a holiday. Or stayed in a hotel. Or called the police, watched television, used electricity, become sick and needed medical care, or stopped into a convenience store to buy a case of beer. Lucky you.

In short, cry me a river.

Methinks it's time to barbique something this weekend. I'm thinking steak and brats.

Kao's steak marinade:
1 cup Worchestechire sauce.
1/2 liquid smoke
1 cup steak sauce.
1/2 tsp Caynne pepper
1/4 tsp powdered mustard
1 tsp onion salt
Ground pepper to taste

What a way to honour the dead by roasting up some dead meat.

Different jobs, different times, different days off. A consideration when you are looking for employment.

I'll think about "poor" you the next time my evening plans have been trashed so I can have the joy of working late, or when I get called in on my "normal" days off.

I would not work at all, if I was not so fond of eating on a regular basis, and so pleased to have a roof over my head.

A side note: Last time I tried to roast something that was not dead, I had a terrible fight on my hands. Let me tell you, I learned that lesson!

I promise not to cook and eat any war veterens, hows that?

Cows, cows are fair game. I have a longstanding grudge against all cowkind stemming from the "incident" at my 1st grade dairy field trip. No mercy will be shown to the bovine hoards.

You work in some sort of job placement profession don't you? Otherwise how could any normal citizen gain such detailed insight into the way employment works?

Yes, that's exactly what I want, illegal immigrants taking care of my healthcare.

I blessedly have the weekend off (only working one out three weekends is pretty nice ), but the ER has been slammed lately.

Bush has a clever plan to import more of them for cheap labor. Just something to keep in mind this November.

What the hell? You a vegetarian?

Warmaverick it was called a joke. Where in my post did I even say dont eat meat. In fact technically even vegetarians are murderers, what makes them worst is they eat a lot of their food live, oh the cruelty. Also if I was serious I would of made some points instead of a one liner, since it is hard to make a point if you dont make any points.
