  6. For the list of holidays in this year 2009, thanks a lot for your help. I will submit it to our HR para hindi na sila nag-swa-swap..Gosh! Last year, our company almost swapped the holidays and treated as normal days! We have no choice but to follow, better than not. It is very hard to find a job at this time, we are experiencing global crisis, isn’t it?

    again, Thanks for the info..
