Hello, everybody, and welcome back to Because I Said So, your favorite mother-daughter podcast.

Hello, everyone. Mom, how you doing? Great. You're not sitting up straight, which you would be upset about.

I know, I don't like to sit like this. I want to sit like this. We're back at home. We're on mom's couch.

This is probably my favorite place to record. Mine too. I'm in a hot dog shirt because the barstool

fourth of july merch is on sale i love that one i love this one too it's nice because um

barstool loves the fourth of july i would say it's probably as a company their favorite holiday

and here's how you know we get the full week off the entire week i didn't know that you didn't know that how would

i know that every year i mean like i don't know i just know it every year i didn't get it i did not

get an email stating it and my boss didn't tell me well what a boomer move of you to even expect that

your boss is just going to send out an email you're my boss i thought you would tell me and past

you i thought i would get an email from someone no No, I think it's just, you know, so you've been out of the corporate world for a little bit. But the biggest thing you do when you get hired somewhere is you ask for their calendar because it tells you like on Christmas, you know, you always wonder, do I get the day off after Christmas? Because it's different with every company. Right. But some companies get, so on our corporate calendar, the week of the 4th of July, no matter what, is off, always. Well, I didn't know that, but I always know around the holidays I'm going home when I'm going home because I'm mom and I have to go home and do stuff. Oh, you're making your own schedule for that, but I didn't know about the holidays in the summer. That's awesome. Yeah, you get the whole 4th of July off. So that's why I'm sad. The whole week. The whole week. That's why I'm sad because I'm going to Italy next week. Oh, wait. Let me get my file in. The wambulence. Get the wambulence. No, I'm thankful to be going to Italy, but it's funny because I'm coming back and then I get the whole week off because Graham has to work. Oh, he does. So it kind of sucks because like you could stay in Italy for two weeks. The guy that sits behind me, Jack McCarthy. Yes. He's like, I'm going to Italy for two weeks. And I was like, two weeks. And he's like, well, yeah, why would I not go for the fourth?

Like, you know, and so.

Okay, I have talked.

There are so many people that are going to be in Italy this summer. It's unbelievable. Have you seen the memes? No. It's the joke. everyone's like oh it's officially how on earthed all these people afford to go to italy month oh i was

thinking it too i was like good lord these people are like getting my nails done yeah we're going

everyone's talking about

going for two weeks and all these places they're going. They're talking about it in yoga. They're talking about it in Pilates. I'm like, well, I'm not going to Italy. Oh, did you feel sorry for yourself? Kind of.

Well, you could have booked it.

That's the thing, though.

This is why you would go for two weeks.

It's because you only take a week off.
