is 260808 a public holiday at my workplace?

last nite, cl's colleague called him to ask if tues, 26Aug08 is an off day for the company due to permatang pauh's by-election day. i didn't know what was going on, so the first thing that came to my mind was probably his colleague was just pulling his legs. having a sudden day off during a normal working day would be a wish come true to every employee on earth, but it's just too good to be true.

early this morning, upon reaching my office, everybody was talking about tomorrow's public holiday. it seems that everybody came to work today just to find out whether or not are we off the next day. we waited the whole morning...no news from the HR yet. we went to lunch and back, still no news yet. my colleagues were getting restless, after having found out which & which company are going to be off tomorrow and our curiousity grew stronger & stronger with each passing minute. we kept on checking our outlook, hoping to get some good news before we call it a day.

it's 2.54pm now and we're still waiting for some good news before we call it a day.
