It Is Nice to Have Fridays Off Over the Summer

One of the advantageous of working for a university is that employees get more time off.  When I started in 1992 we had to work only 30 hours a wek spread out over 5 days.  Thus we worked one less hour a day.  I forget they year, but we were given Fridays off from the beginning of June until the third week of August.  We have to work an extra 1/2 hout a day Monday to Thursday to get to a 30 hour work week.  The university offices are open on Friday with a skeleton staff.  Those people get Mondays off.
