Having them home saved me an hour and I used that time to sleep in. I haven't felt this rested at work in a long time. Apologies to those that had their normal drop offs. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/work-on-the-5th-of-july-should-be-banned-so-for-fun-lets-post-where-wed-rather-be#post-2890120 Fri, 05 Jul 2019 11:20:08 +0000 Mommy Finger 2890120@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Ajsmommy: My fear is that we'll have to work late too and will have to order dinner. But if that means I don't have to work on the weekend, I'll take it. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/work-on-the-5th-of-july-should-be-banned-so-for-fun-lets-post-where-wed-rather-be#post-2890108 Fri, 05 Jul 2019 10:19:30 +0000 Ajsmommy 2890108@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@josina: oh no sick as well!! that is terrible!<br /> @MrsRoo: this is how I left my family.. lol, I snuck out so I didn't wake them<br /> @Kaohinani: busy busy day... and I would miss island life too<br /> @Mommy Finger: we're getting pizza too :) guess its better than nothing... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/work-on-the-5th-of-july-should-be-banned-so-for-fun-lets-post-where-wed-rather-be#post-2890103 Fri, 05 Jul 2019 10:03:11 +0000 Mommy Finger 2890103@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm in accounting so we're dealing with quarter end close.

While I enjoy my family, jobs, and where I live; HANDS DOWN, I would much rather be back on Oahu taking an hour or two for myself on the beach 🏝🌞⛱😁! I miss island life. 🥺</p> <p>[attach=9021/19/pu6b6p.600x500.Screenshot_20190705-102548_Photos.jpg] </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/work-on-the-5th-of-july-should-be-banned-so-for-fun-lets-post-where-wed-rather-be#post-2890090 Fri, 05 Jul 2019 09:23:00 +0000 MrsRoo 2890090@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I agree! We had a full schedule today (outpatient imaging center) and our patients are dropping off like flies when they realize that they don’t want to come get a medical test the day after the 4th. So now I’m here with nothing to do counting the hours until 5 pm.....</p> <p>I’d rather be in bed snuggling with my girls. </p> [attach=1345/19/pu6amc.450x600.765280A5-FE60-486E-B44E-69036ACB1CEA.jpeg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/work-on-the-5th-of-july-should-be-banned-so-for-fun-lets-post-where-wed-rather-be#post-2890086 Fri, 05 Jul 2019 09:09:05 +0000 paigeface 2890086@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm at work too!

I really wanted to call in - but hate 'wasting' my PTO, and didn't want people to think I was just skipping, lol.<br /> We used to get July 5th as a paid holiday but had it taken away a couple years ago. :sad: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/work-on-the-5th-of-july-should-be-banned-so-for-fun-lets-post-where-wed-rather-be#post-2890082 Fri, 05 Jul 2019 08:47:56 +0000 Ajsmommy 2890082@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>This is the first year I've had to work July 5 and I do believe it should be banned.... </p> <p>This is where I'd rather be!! </p> [attach=4974/19/pu68zw.476x317.wish.jpg]
