Congressional Schedule

How’s this sound for a schedule. You get to work Tuesday through Friday. During your workdays you are never required to be “at work” longer than 5 minutes. You can pop in, vote, and leave. So, you’ve got every monday off which is nice for a three day weekend, but a three day weekend isn’t enough if you’re planning on going on an African safari and hunting White Rhino, or going on an extended coke binge with drug runners in the Caribbean. Sooo you actually get a massive 10 day weekend which extends vacation time for the entire third week of every month. But it even gets better because you’ve forgotten about holidays, and when you get a holiday you also get nice holiday padding days. So you don’t have to worry about getting the bar b que ready for memorial day, you can take off the whole week to prepare for that. The same goes for Easter, the Fourth of July, and Thanksgiving. For Christmas you’re given two weeks, and then of course those two weeks round into New Years Eve so you’re given another 5 days after New Years to recoop and hopefully get your new years resolutions on track. But wait. We’re also forgetting about August. August is after all a really nice month, getting a bit chillier outside but perfect for evening walks as the leaves begin to change and fall sets in. So for August, you can just take all of August off as well.
