NoFakie 45 Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 Yes folks, Abenomics has come to the rescue again giving us a new national holiday. Yama no hi, a chance to give tanks and praises unto di one Jah Rastafari to your local yama. That one which is 3m high included. It's slap bang in the middle of Obon, meaning it won't be an extra day off for quite a few. It will also be the school holidays. Still, no extra days with the kiddies moping about the house is fine with me! Link to post Share on other sites

Thundercat 60 Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 Holidays that fall in the middle of the week are next to useless and generally interrupt work more than they help people get away from it. This one for instance will be on a Thursday when it comes into effect. Why not just make it the second Friday of every August (or Monday even) and people will actually be able to take advantage of a long weekend. In any event, don't politicians have more important thing than passing laws to give holidays in the middle of a ****ing holiday period. Link to post Share on other sites
