If I weren’t homebound with a broken leg, I’d’ve been working today.

I work as a caretaker (but am having to use one now. How ironic.)

State University staff. It’s floating holiday for us - we usually use these between Christmas and New Years when we close down the department for maintenance and major upgrades. Today it’s just the usual problems.

To the Vets - thanks.

It’s a little late since Veteran’s Day for me was actually two days ago by the calendar, but I was working. I also worked yesterday and I’m working today. Flying knows no holidays.

I work at a community college in Florida. We were supposed to have yesterday off, but the day off was cancelled due to the hurricanes.
