Gambling, football and alcohol to start the New Year. What was it Orwell said about sports and gambling being a way to control the people? How many employees will call in sick (hungover) tomorrow to start the year with an even longer weekend?

When most of your government is composed of prog/left union employees you know you need to pamper them and coddle them. We've made ourselves captive to a leviathan mind. Now shut the F up and make taxable dollars for them to suck out of the teat of Mother Government.

I'm a state employee and have today off, too. I've been off since 12/22 and go back tomorrow.

Most employers will give off the Friday or Monday if the holiday falls on the weekend. Unfortunately, it’s not extended to retail or healthcare.
