Hi flagella! Yeah there's been a lot of holidays in August. But we don't get to have a day off like you.Its business as usual. But the good part of it though would be the double pay.

yes that's the good thing about it.it's more fun when the pays double.hahhah. it's a holiday pay actually. Holiday Pay refers to pay received by an employee on the occasion of a regular holiday or special day. In the case of regular holiday, the employee is paid even if she did not work. She receives double her pay if she works on a regular holiday. In the case of a special day (see below), the employee is not paid if she does no report for work. But if the employee works on a special day, she is entitled to 130% of her usual pay.(according to labor law).

Each of them find different ways to make fun through the day. Some love to visit the malls and spent the time here and there. Some love to go to the beach and do some plays over there. I am the one who just love to anything with my friends and I hope I will have a good time with them.

holidays are always exciting, they give us the new strength, no matter how many days we work, but still we always look for the holidays, when i was in school, always used to check the calender, to see how many holidays we have in the month, not only children even elders are also excited equally.
