Why Are You at Work Today?

Wait, you're at work today? On this Independence Day work-week holiday?

We feel your pain all too well.

If you're not like 85% of the Bay Area -- who have been given the day off to head to more summer-y locales to barbecue assorted meats and blow shit up, or get to watch KRON 4's Darya Folsom work her magic -- please tell us why you have to work today. Are you still in the office? Commiserate here to share your stories of sadness with other unfortunate souls chained to their desks.

Because that's just sad, being stuck at work today. Seriously, from the windows at SFist headquarters, there are, like, eight people walking along Third Street. Are you one of them?

Am I bitter to be in the office today? Absolutely. Am I grateful to have a floating holiday instead? You bet. Am I going to take off the Friday before Labor Day off and go on a long cabin-by-the-lake weekend with this saved up holiday? Hells yes ;-)

7/3 = comp. day :)

Deadlines. An this one can float so meh.

Yes I walked down 3rd street to get to work today. The result of the agreement between our union and the city and county of SF.

Working for a start up = what's a federal holiday?

At least I got a seat on my morning commute

I'm plotting conservative evil. And mooning tourists.

For us, reading this post tells us we're at work. For you, reading this comments tells you the same. A sad, sad day for the internet.

Yet ANOTHER well-thought-out piece from the folks at MuniDiaries! Keep up the effort.

Freelancer. And these days, any day with income potential is a good day.

What if you actually love your job and came in to work despite everyone telling you to stay home because you're a lame fuck that has nothing better to do than work?

Wow, that sounds bad. Well that's me! I'll be working tomorrow too but then again I never take a day off so whatever.

I actually didn't know till yesterday that it was independence day. I'm bad with dates.

Vhat is dis ding you call "work?"

Of course I'm at work. Got to avoid the wife somehow.

not physicall at work but doing what i do there anyway. reading/posting sfist. just sans pants

Or, you could be happy you have a job. There's around 9.5% of us who'd be happy to be "in pain" at work today.

Delfina for lunch AND scored a sidewalk table in the shade. Salisiccia and a couple glasses of wine. Sometimes, things just work out.
