I asked a month ago if we would get Friday off for Chuseok(Korean Thanksgiving). I was told, "no," and booked my trip to Fukuoka accordingly. I was told today that I have Friday off. I'm resisting the urge to strangle everyone in the office.

Why will they have a 20 minute discussion with me about an assembly for the students, but are unable to inform me of a simple schedule? Why? If anything else goes wrong today, I'm setting myself on fire and hurling myself out the window.

I'm going to start skipping work. I'll just say I thought it was a holiday.
