I sincerely hope the new administration takes away this crap holiday economics... Most businesses suffer from this due to lack of productivity. Me included. Probably the only industry benefiting is the tourism and hospitality business...

Not to mention it screws up meeting schedules, especially when dealing with groups in other countries
Plus... it destroys our sense of history and culture as it sends a message to our people that special dates can be trifled with so easily.

hehe
pansin niyo?
sa loob ng isang taon, ilan araw ang wala pasok?
holy week (holy wednesday palang wala na pasok), all saints/all souls (3 to 4 days yan), Xmas vacation (before Dec 24 wala na pasok... hanggang first few days of January), Araw ng Kagitingan, Labor day at iba pa mga red sa calendar, plus those declared holidays
if you add all of those days together, that's like what? equivalent to a whole month?Last edited by uls; May 27th, 2010 at 05:36 PM.

Holiday economics isn't at all bad. Especially for retail/tourism business. The problem lies in setting expectations earlier.

Bayad ka nga lang.
