No, because I plan my week knowing it’s a 4 day week.

No

Nah

Yup

No, knowing the holiday was coming, I simply finished my work ahead of time and when I go back to the office I can ease into my next tasks.

No, because I don't celebrate holidays celebrating a mailman making it to a Texas town.

You are not saving lives or saving the world. You shouldn’t feel guilty about a paid day off.

This is the very definition of privilege

Able to post something so absurdly wrong (Google PMs in the comments explaining that she transferred ladders when she switched jobs internally, hence pay change)

Able to become a product manager at Google and STILL not comprehend how misleading the race aggregation stat is “Black women make 58 cents to every $1 a white man makes!” not taking into account job choice and individual opportunity.

..all while the comments are filled with blind support
