Stolen - Public Holidays galore
Just doing some forward planning for work and needed to include provision for public holidays for Next Fiscal Year (July 2010 to June 2011) when I came across this.
According to the NSW Government website there will be no public holiday for Christmas this year. !!!
Well, Actually, if you work Saturday you will get one, but not otherwise.
Christmas Public Holiday is Saturday 25th December, 2010, then the Boxing Day Holiday is Monday 27th December, 2010. Go Figure!
Then New Year's Day 2011, is on a Saturday, and is not followed by a Public Holiday on the Monday.
And if you thought that was bad, Easter Monday 2011 falls on April 25th.
And of course Anzac Day is 25th April too.
So technically, we are getting both, but on the same day !
Three Public Holidays pinched in one year!
I guess "the Country" will be billions of dollars better off since we will all work a lot more. Hang on, just who is "the country"? Big Business ? D'oh! Ripped Off again.
What do you think?

Reason: clarifying which Christmas we lost (Dec 2010)
