Take the days off without pay then ...
No brainer
Dang, I'm dealing with my third year trying to start up my construction business in this economy because that's all I know. Unemployment ran out over a year ago. I feel so sorry for this person... I made 16k this year and this guy was sent out to "protect out freedom" by an idiot who thinks that he wants to be the Worlds' policeman. We spent 16 billion instead of paying off our national debt to bail out other countries banks, and Obama
thinks this is something that is OK.
God help us all.
We spent 16 billion
I think you meant Trillion. They were spending 4 Billion a week.
Thanks, I stand corrected. I also agree with Daddio, take the time off without pay and go on with your life. They can't fire you for doing what you're doing...
