My office is closed, and I took some of the kids from my Wolf Cubs pack to a service at one of the Legions.

Working today because I had to miss some time last week and am up against deadlines (probably shouldn't be here when I'm this busy, but I needed a break). Normally I try to take Remembrance Day off, even though my company keeps the office open and lets people work for an extra day off at Christmas if they want.

Working today. People in head office get the day off, but since the industry is a 24/7 operation, the rest of us flunkies have to hold the fort.

I'm working. This is the only stat I don't get off. I get Jan. 4 off in lieu though. I would rather get today off, as my wife is a teacher and she has today off and Jan. 4 is her first day back after Christmas. I'm surprised a lot of people get Dec. 28 in lieu of Remembrance Day, as I get that day off in lieu of Boxing day which is on a Saturday this year.

Day off today, but those jackasses at the head office in Toronto kept calling and emailing. I switched off my phone on the way to the Remembrance Day ceremony.

I work today and get December 28th off. Best part about today is that parking rates downtown are holiday prices, so $2 parking for me.

Plus there was no traffic and we weren't busy at all. Remembrance day FTW.
