Christmas Long Holiday Vacation...Good or Bad?

Hey, I think you can complain this to the Department of Labor and Employment. This is a bad sign. Why the heck would they touch the employees salary when in fact it is a government declaration, and if you indeed went to office on those days, they should have paid you twice for those days.

I think having a long Christmas vacation is good because you have been working the whole year and you only get a long vacation during Christmas. Besides it is the best time to get bonding moments with your love ones and to plan a long trip either within the country or abroad. I wish that even we are on vacation we should still be receiving our salary but that only happens to some cases. We may spend a big amount during this season but come to think of it, it only happens once a year! Why should be set limitations to ourselves if it is for the benefit of us and of our love ones? I think long Christmas vacation should always serve as a motivation to earn more the next year and to do good the whole year so that the reward will come on December. And I always believe on the saying that "we only live once so make the most out of it." Enjoy life while it lasts because it is too short to keep yourself working and working again and again. A month long vacation is not good but a two-week straight one is understandable. Thanks!
