These types of posts always irk me - whether it's planned vacation time or sick time.
As far as vacation, how long would you be able to go working evenings without taking any time off? No vacation plans? Family obligations?
How often do you go a year's stretch while being at full physical strength, able to sing full voice, dance, etc. Performing is a demanding job and, in this case, Ms. Midler scheduled her time off far enough in advance for both her employer and the audience to plan around it. I hope she enjoys whatever she is doing. |
