So it is Monday yet again and I am once more a part of the general populace that is continually grinding and toiling amidst the hustle and bustle of the city...sorry for the touch of melodrama back there...Mondays and I have a hate-love relationship (with more emphasis on the hate part).
It doesn't help that this particular Monday was previously announced as a National Holiday (by previously, I mean, January this year). But what can we do? There was a new president elected this year and he sure is hell-bent on distancing himself from all the policies of the previous government...even the ones that work. I am all for holding the past administration accountable for whatever they did but when you try to change everything just to prove a point then it becomes counter-productive and even petty. Stick with what what works great, improve on everything else. Instead of dwelling on discussions on which holidays should be abolished, there are actually more important issues to be tackled, as the president himself raised on his first SONA. We get it MR. President...you are not anything like the ex-president...When you already have your mind set as early as 8 months ago that you will NOT be working on this particular day, it is a little hard not to go all political on the one person that got you stuck behind your desk.
I could have been lying on the beach sipping an ice-cold pinacolada, Mr. President...well, not really that but you get my point.
