10 November 2003

And in an annoyance for this week, I don't get Veterans Day off. I don't know if very many people do, but I find it interesting that we get Memorial Day off but not Veterans Day. Wouldn't the powers that be rather we take time to honor veterans while they're alive? I know that days off most often translate into car dealers putting on loudly-advertised sales or malls opening at 5 am, but I can't help but feel the living veterans are getting the short end of the stick here, especially if they're also not getting the day off.
