Does anybody else plan on taking Wednesday off from work?

[smirkymonkey]

I am taking a vacation day. Whatever happens, I know that I will not be able to focus on working so I have decided to take the day off and focus on the election results. I am pretty sure it will turn out in our favor, but I am definitely expecting a backlash.

If it doesn't turn out in our favor, I am going to be too depressed to function.

1. Every time people suggest Election Day be a holiday,

I think that better the day after be a holiday. Or move Election Day to a Friday, as most people already have Saturday off.

[smirkymonkey]

6. I think that's a very good idea! It should be on a Friday, which should be a national holiday.

This way, everyone has the weekend to sleep off their hangovers and digest the news.

2. I am gonna get hammered Tuesday night.

Then again, I get drunk almost every night.

[smirkymonkey]

4. Just don't pass out before the results are in!

We need all the gloaters we can get!

[awoke_in_2003]

25. I generally tie on a decent buzz

I don't go full drunk often. Tuesday is a paid holiday, and, for once, I'm taking it off. I work second shift, so the election should be called by then. The double pay would be nice, and I could use it, but there are a lot of "conservatives" in my field, and I don't want to hear the whining from third shift when they come in.

3. I'm retired now but in 2008 and 2012, I took the day after election day off from work

because I knew, whether the news was good OR bad, I would be up late on Election Day. You should take Wednesday off. That way you can enjoy Hillary's speech when she wins and enjoy Trump's enormous tantrum when he loses. And the day after will have lots of good stuff going on about our first female President! Hillary 2016!

5. That's another reason, I expect that I will be up very late on Tuesday.

I am not going to sleep until it's OVER and we get to hear Hillary's acceptance speech!

[MANative]

7. Already scheduled. I plan to be celebrating long into the night.

[smirkymonkey]

9. I think it's going to be our night!

[demigoddess]

8. Wednesday morning I feel like breaking out a bottle of wine.

And I don't drink.

[smirkymonkey]

10. I might need a little morning "eye opener" myself!

[Johnny2X2X]

11. Yup

Plan on celebrating until late.

[greendog]

12. I'm off till next Friday!

[TrekLuver]

13. Yes! My job gives us off election day and I took Wed. off. I know I will be up late regardless and

I know we'll be celebrating a win.

[theglammistress]

14. Yes

I took off Tuesday and Wednesday.

I was basically worthless at work all this week, just really distracted. Looking at polls, online, here, whatever. I should have taken Monday too probably.

[smirkymonkey]

17. I know, I can't focus as it is.

It's going to be even worse next week.

[KewlKat]

15. we've already voted for Hillary, but I'm taking wednesday, thursday and friday off to

chillax after this mess. I'm confident she will win, but I want to watch the returns and I'll be worthless the next day.

[Branmerr]

18. Yes

I am taking the day off Wednesday to rest from the night before and focus on election results.

[Laffy Kat]

19. Yes! I took myself off the call schedule for both Tuesday and Wednesday.

I figure on Wednesday I'll either be slightly hung-over from celebrating or too depressed to get out of bed.

[smirkymonkey]

21. LOL! Yes, it will be one or the other!

[davidn3600]

20. They should have the election on a Friday....

Just like the Bob's here explain that firing people at the end of the week statistically shows there will be less chance of an "incident."

[smirkymonkey]

23. My favorite movie!

Well, one of them anyway!

[GulfCoast66]

24. I do every 4 years

Up too late

[CentralMass]

26. I am considering it.

[GP6971]

27. I'm taking Tuesday and Wednesday off

It's just too an important of time to treat these days as normal no matter what the outcome.

[chillfactor]

28. I work the election poll in my part of NM.....

if it is anything like the 2012 election,I will be at the poll until early morning.The election will most likely be called before I even get home. Just the same, I am retired so I will be up the rest of the night to watch the coverage and most of Wednesday as well...I will be too excited to sleep.

[The Genealogist]

29. I seriously thought about it, but decided against it.

I work from home, and as long as I have 8 hours in by 9:00 PM, I am good. So, I figure if I get started by noon Wednesday, I'm ok.

[grubbs]

30. Taking half a day Tuesday

Have an eye appointment and a PT test for a county job as deputy jailor. Much better job than the bill payer I have now. Wish me luck and gotv guys!

[lovemydog]

32. Good luck!

[lovemydog]

31. I'm going to have some friends over to watch the returns.

Presuming it's good news I'll probably come on here after my friends leave, & have some fun. As for the next day, yeah that's a great idea because it'll be a late night.

Voting day truly should be a holiday. Especially for the damn midterms too. We really need to get out the vote for those midterms!

[Bleacher Creature]

33. No. I'm taking off Tuesday to volunteer for HRC.

[vanlassie]

34. Yep. Taking Wednesday off. I'm sleeping late.

[jberryhill]

35. I plan to go to bed early Tuesday night.
