About Days Off


Contractually, rectors are permitted one day off per work week.  Like most clergy, I generally try to take Mondays off.  However, from July 4th through Labor Day weekend, I use what I call the "Three W's System" for calculating which day to have off.

The three W's stand for work, wind, and weather.  In other words, if the work is not pressing, if the wind is right for sailing, if the weather is right for surfing, I'm taking that day off.  Hence, it is a floating holiday in more ways than one.

Days off will be announced on Twitter, as found in the right column of this weblog.

[By the way, it's supposed to be rainy today with a chance of thunderstorms.  So, I'm working.]
