We are working 2 1/2 days a week next two weeks. The boss has noted that nobody wants to come in on Friday after a holiday, and the ones that say they do sneak out at lunch and don't come back til Monday anyway.

The post "Christmas time in Auschwitz" from V2 reminded me of an old friend, Lloyd W. who survived the Batan Death march and captivity in Japan until released in 1945. He didn't speak of the time, but often in his later years, he would comment on something. One Christmas he told of his saddest Christmas. In 1944, Japan had a long winter with heavy snow and when they awoke Christmas morning, the snow had collapsed the roof of the Canadian barracks leaving most of them dead. Although his telling us of this was sad, he said those who survived the war looked at the present time cheerfully, because of the sacrifices of all.
