Hmmm. his birthday is actually on March 21, which is Saturday...shouldn't the "holiday" fall on Friday or Monday (preceding or following)???BajaNuts - 3-15-2009 at 09:27 PM
if you assume...(and we all know what happens when you a-u=me)...that gobernment employees get paid holidays off.......how can I get a job with the
Mexican Gobernment? They have WAY more holidays than the NOB. I used to be a gobernment employee in WA state, doesn't that count?bajalou - 3-16-2009 at 08:29 AM
My calendar shows only 7 "Official Federal Holidays" in Mexico vs 9 in the EU. Of course there are about 14 more that are celebrated but not
"Official".sylens - 3-16-2009 at 05:37 PM
