but I do have to say I feel sorry for the mail carriers who have to be out in the heat today.
I wouldn't keep a dog outside in this, and I suppose I wouldn't keep an overpaid unionized public employee out in it, either. But mostly because I don't want him/her calling in for a sick day tomorrow due to heat prostration.
Don't forget the dumb ass bricklayers.
Yeah, but if you take a sick day, it doesn't come out of my pocket.
What are these "sick days" you speak of?
Any relation to the mystical "vacation day"?
