UAW observes Veteran's Day on Nov. 15; Deer face final exam.

Friday, November 15, 2002, is a holiday where I work. For Veterans’ Day, they say. So why is it on the 15th? I found out why. The 15th is opening day of the deer hunting season in Michigan, where a great many UAW members live.

I’m boggled. Is this a very efficient use of a paid holiday, or is it a little bent? What do you think?
