Better Than None @ All...

Darn!!! Like almost 3/4 of the world had half today but not poor sleepy :( So envious that most pp had half day and it was rather evident @ the branch coz there was this HUGE crown b/w 12-1 thereabouts afterwhich it quietened down considerably which was good! Even the volume of cheques was lesser than other Mondays; but still, they took sooooo long to be processed and before we could go home.

But actually, I am wondering why there is half day on Christmas Eve but like not on Hari Raya Puasa or Deepavali? Different case for NYE coz it is NY to everyone but not EVERYONE celebrates Christmas though my colleague thnks otherwise. He feels that everyone can celebrate christmas hence the half day is justifiable. But anyways it doesnt apply to me; if I am in an organisation that gives me half day on Christmas Eve then I wouldn't be complaining on my blog now :P

& I suspect that we won't have half day on the eve of CNY which totally sucks!!! I remember when I was temping @ Citibank, as it is a foreign bank, it is full day on CNY eve and I was really shocked! But I got to leave early coz I was juz a temp and there wasnt much to do. & in PA, never had to work on CNY eve & past 2 years, CNY eve fell on Sat which meant it was an official half day for me. I hope by some miracle, we will be given half day on CNY eve... not that I am helping with the dishes or 2 clean the house n blah... but coz i feel kinda cheated haha.

But as the title goes... better than nothing @ all... branches will only operate for 2 hours next Mon... YIPEEEE!!! Rest of the day if supposedly for us to pack our office n blah... but we r doing a bit of packing now so hopefully can leave real early next wk *keeping my fingers crossed*

& till my next entry
Merry Christmas Everyone!!!
