yay
Once again, in the realm of “it’ll be all over the news tomorrow, but…”, we finally have the announcement of the five-day work week.
Our dear Prime Minster did have to take an ass-long time getting to it, though. After the relatively short Malay and Mandarin segments, followed by repeating various components of each in the English segment, followed by a vaguely promising lead-up (”too much work to want to have kids,” at which point I SMSed Hansen “holy shit”), followed by a five-minute tirade against e-mail (”Is he giving a five-day work week or banning e-mail?”), then bam! And the crucial words, “including the Army and schools.” Yay!
Anyway, time to sleep and face the new (shortened) week.
