    mumbles, that's the way to do it.

    Just keep copy / pasting the same paragraph over and over again until these idiots get it.

    No the new book is called

  • Lets suppose you only get 1 day per year holiday and you plan to stay with that company for 60 years .
    what is the best strategy to take the one day per year???
    is it best to take your day on 31/12 every year ???
    or is it better to take your day earlier every year???
    by about 6 days earlier would be my guess.
    What's your guess???

    ARGH!

    But when you get right back to taking your holiday on 1 January, how do you take 31 December the following year WITHOUT WORKING TWO FULL YEARS while everyone else HAS THEIR USUAL ONE YEAR?

    All you have done is swap an interval of one LESS day for 364 years for an interval of 364 MORE days on the final year over a cycle.

    This works the same with months over years as you initially suggested.

    You cannot escape the cycle.
  • you join company on jan 1 you intend working there 60 years

    the company only gives you 1 day holiday per year (its only an example)

    which day should you take your holiday to give you the least amount of days to work before your next holiday???
