enjoy the thing what you have got. your family is utmost than your job. so enjoy with your family and relations to the hilt.anyway you will be working 5 days and your employer get the maximum from your but for the money he pays you.are youll going to live for 100 years to make the world prosperous. No. so it is better to enjoy every time and work hard and honestly when you work.

Can't you fix yearly calendar at the beginning of the year? Regardless of politics, really funny to see the way this happens just before New year.

5 days as holidays at a stretch is not healthy for our economy.

in deed its a happy news for many, extra holidays, extra fun.... but a country trying to come out of debt and develop the economy its a hit on the productivity of the workforce. late Indian president Abdul Kalam said "Great dreams of great dreamers are always transcended" but if we keep giving holidays like this... dreams will only be dreams..
