| After 6 years, I don't get to work on Labor Day for real. |
Labor Day has its many shares of history throughout the whole globe. It is called many names and is honored in different dates. But it suggests only one reason to celebrate: WOKERS EARNING THE RIGHT TO ONLY DO 8 HOURS OF LABOR A DAY, HAVING 8 HOURS OF REST AND 8 HOURS OF RECREATION. Depending on the company you're working for, you should be entitled as an employee to this holiday. As for me, working in the happiest place on earth is quite demanding. The soul of a theme park depends on its attractions and its shows make it as alive as the music and story it shares which is highly expected by the guests. For 6 years, every holiday there is to enjoy means additional workload for us. Understandably, we are one of the most in-demand reacreation place for people who go on vacation. To make it easier to comprehend, we, entertainers of the park, we work doubly hard when all others are enjoying a holiday. We get alternate days for it though so it's all cool. As far as entitlement is concerned, there's no problem with that. Plus we get to see the delight in our guests faces which is enough to keep us going. After all, passion is the name of the game. Today, I honored Labor Day like the rest of the people of the world. Since this year started, I work in the office doing light duty. Right now, I am on my 6th month of pregnancy already. And I am priviledged to experience Labor Day literally with nothing to do but stay at home. Here in Hong Kong, Buddha's birthday is honored too. So, May 3 and a 4 falls on a weekend which are my fixed days off. I filed vacation just for 2 days but combining everything, I get 6 days of rest all in all. Little perks like this can be blissful.
