back in my kindergarten hagwon on monday morning after a week long holiday, the only thing sounding good being that friday is a national holiday, they have a habit of getting stuff wrong etc, and they often request my presence for training crap, nevertheless is this right? Everyone else got it off too?

It is a national holiday and everyone SHOULD have it off.

There are some who work for places like CDI who will still be working however. (sucks to be them).

Yes the holiday is Liberation Day. (I refuse to call it 'Independence Day')

Damn straight it's a non-work day!

Who's going to see Marylin Manson and Death Cab on Friday?

I can't believe South Korea hasn't declared "Dokdo Day" yet.

We're working it, but getting an extra day at Chuseok. I don't mind that. I'm fukking broke this month anyway after our 5-day summer vacation. A 3-day weeknend this month would be as much use as a chocolate fire-guard to me.

This thread should be made into a poll. Btw, I have the day off. Nice to have a long weekend.
