:cheers:

Of the three Canucks in our office today only one is wearing red and a Canada t-shirt.

SHAMEFUL DISPLAY! :mad:

I can't imagine wearing t-shirts to work.

Syt

We can only do that on casual Fridays.

My old job, jeans and t-shirt was fine, since our finance department had almost no outside contact.

To the Franco-Canucks: Happy Moving Day!

(As my Quebecoise colleague just reminded me when I called her out on not being dressed on her national holiday.)

I'll have Friday off, it'll be a welcome day :)
I don't do meditation.  I drink alcohol to relax, like normal people.

well, I'm guessing your summers are longer than mine, so no video game if it's not raining and the temp is above 15C :D

It is basically raining every weekend here. For the second consecutive weekend I had to cancel plans outside. I had a whole weekend alone with my two year old planned about a month ago that ended up being 'lets stay inside and watch Cars 20 times' after a truly amazing storm hung around the whole time.

But even if we do go out it is not like I cannot wake up at 3 am and play until dawn as I usually do on Saturday :P

The idea of wearing a t-shirt to celebrate a national day is totally alien to me.

How would you suggest national days be celebrated?

Make them public holidays.  That's good enough for me.

But wearing a piece of clothing of some sort crosses the line?

That's what I keep telling people.
Women want me. Men want to be with me.
