| I just found out that tomorrow is Korean Labor Day. My school says we have to work. Does everyone else have to? Is it illegal to make someone work on this day? |

| How much time is everyone getting off this month again? I'm not going to complain about working labor day. |

| Labour Day in Korea is not a "red" holiday so your school can legally require you to work it if they choose to do so. |

| My high school students have exams tomorrow, so I'll be there for 1st and 2nd period. Then I'm going home at 10 a.m., per my principal's already expressed permission. |

I'm not working tomorrow - not because it's Korean Labor Day, but because it's my school's 'Foundation Day'.  |

Dammit I have to go to work in the morning - though I have no classes. 
I asked for the afternoon off though to go do the fun stuff like transferring money home etc. So I'll be spending time (probably hours) at the bank instead. Joy. |

I could be wrong, but I think the banks are closed tomorrow. |

Do something about your avatar.
I keep thinking you have something witty at the bottom of your posts but it's just a fucking massive avatar. |
