take a vacation!!! :)

Hey,

How many vacation days do you have? I went to check what my work's policy is, after reading The Vanishing American Vacation off Digg today. So, it looks like we are "lucKy" with 15 days per year, earned at 1.25 days per month. (I have 7 right now.)

How many days, weeks, months do YOU get? I know my housemate gets at least a month or two for summer vacation--he's a teacher, like I used to be.

WHen you are about to die, will you wish YOU had spent more time commuting, in the office, or otherwise working?

Now, get the hell out of work on time (unless you love your job) and play soccer, swim, or hang with friends like you know you want to :)

Cheers.

waste management on strike in oakland...

I was curious why. Maybe they forgot? Can garbage men forget to pick up trash from some streets? Do people call in when it happens?

I fully support the strike... don't care how high the garbage piles up. Give 'em a raise so they can all pay off their subprime mortgages, buy organic food, and enjoy the high life of consumption.

on an unrelated note, i really enjoyed helping out milk bubbles with their first ice cream event and wish i'd been less lazy! it was pretty crowded at times but i could've pushed myself more. next time!

old news (jobs' speech)

you should read steve jobs' commencement speech at stanford. i liked it because i have also believed in his main points for some time now...

we're all dying someday
therefore we should do what we love for a career,
we should live each day the best we can as it could be our last,
and i forget the other point.

prob is, i'm not sure what i love to do and i'm not having chances really to find those things out at the moment... frustrated

i do like:
exercise
outdoors
kids
people
history, biology, astro, some reading

beyond that, not sure.
