POETS Day in Your Nation

Postby Kalaspia-Shimarata » Sun Jul 31, 2011 6:38 am

Does your nation have/celebrate POETS day (Piss off Early Tommoro's Saturday). We have POETS day once every 8 weeks and SHIFT Day (Stay Home It's Friday Today) every 13 weeks, unless it also falls on POETS day or Public Holiday, in which case, SHIFT Day is the next week, and counting starts from then.

POETS day:Everyone works half a day for half the pay. Schools get half day
SHIFT day:If the company/organisation is open 7 days, the weekend people rather than the week day people, if only open on weekdays, it is closed, if only open on weekends, it is also closed. Pay works accordingly. Schools are closed

These days are not compolsory but highly recomended.
What about your nation?
Kalaspia-Shimarata's flag represents the Union between K&S. The dark blue represents the sea and the light blue represents the sky. In Kalashi language considers light blue and dark blue to be different colours. England colonised, and unified K&S, between 1774 and 1953, and English, light blue and dark blue are considered to be the same colour. Therefore, the contrast between dark blue and light blue represents the union, but the differences between K&S where as blue being two but simultaneously one colour represents K&S being two, but simultaniously one entity. The opposite to the symmetry represents the unity and indipendance of K&S, whilst also representing the Kalashi culture of opposite symmetry.KS is 75% Christian, hence the cross.

... If a person decides to leave early from work, that is their business.
No, we are not obsessed with Maple Syrup. Speaking of that, Would you like some 100% Pure Vermont Maple Syrup? We have a surplus this year.

People are paid by the hour, the unambitious can work as little as 6 hours a day to gain subsistence or 18 hours a day for luxury. This is our way of having a more successful Socialism (pay grade differentials tend to be worked out by degree qualifications used during work).

Friday and Saturday are the beginning of the Tsvarchivan workweek, so I doubt it'd go over well if anyone left work early or didn't even bother to go to work during those days. Wednesday and Thursday are days off in Tsvarchi.
