TESTERS WANTED! ×

Question #1


Recommended Posts

Wanted to test this new feature for questions which requires its own sub-forum.  This should work just like other prominent Q&A websites.  The asker poses a question, users respond, and the answers are evaluated to find the best. You can rate the question and vote on the answers to will float the best answers to the top.  Then the asker can nominate the best answer.

Now that the housekeeping is out of the way, here's my question:

 

 

If your job gave you a surprise three day paid break to rest and recuperate, what would you do with those three days?

   

 

Edit: Get on the mobile/desktop version (not app) to participate in voting.

 

Edit 2: I'm not sure people are understating the voting system (or just choosing not to use it). It's different than the likes system. You have to click the arrows in the picture, I believe these are anonymous; feel free to down vote this post to test. They'll change color based on what you voted.

Mine is pretty simple because I get 4 days off all the time.

Depending on weather I would go hunting or dog training one day.
Next day golf then relax with the dogs afterwards.
Third day workout, take the dogs hunting or train them and drink beer with friends after that.

Add a couple personal days, and take a snowboard trip to Baldface Lodge.

Easy! If it’s golf season, I’d be on the course.

If it’s like today with 3” of snow, I’d cry for 3 days

First of all, I would not rest, I'd do that when I went back to work.  I'd go play golf.  I might drive somewhere to play, Pinehurst is only 6 hours.  So if I was told this early in the day, I could drive down after work, play for 3 days, and drive back home.  And THEN I would rest.

This is dangerous because you can vote someone down.  Sort of reminds me of Barstool sports comment threads.  Some dudes have +100, while others are -10.

I'm a stay at home dad, so I'm going to assume 3 days off means someone is taking my kids away for 3 days.

First thing I'm doing is sleeping in. 

Second try for some "alone time" with the wife

Third is golfing and drinking

Rinse and repeat for the next 2 days.  Also the 2nd and 3rd option can be flip flopped as I see fit 🙂

Oh....and maybe a nap in there some time!

Assuming nobody but me has this magic 3 day break:

Day 1: Dawn patrol on Torrey Pines South, followed by a burger at the Lodge and a good couch sit at home with some beers

Day 2: Sleep in, take the dog to the beach for seagull chasing and a quick swim, then twilight 18 at Torrey North to wrap up at sunset

Day 3: Do some work on the house/yard that I wouldn't get to on a normal 2 day weekend because golf & time with the wife is usually my priority

I'm not sure people are understating the voting system (or just choosing not to use it). It's different than the likes system. You have to click the arrows in the picture I've attached. I believe these are anonymous; feel free to down vote this post to test. They'll change color based on what you voted.

 

The votes are also self-contained to this question. They don't affect overall reputation on the forum...that's still in the reactions system.

You may be right. That screenshot I shared was from the mobile version of the website so that's an option for you all to participate. I'm finding the mobile version through chrome is a very good experience; much improved over the previous offering and almost as good as desktop.

I am supposed to get a 3 day weekend every other week, but that hasn’t happened for the last 8 months 😠 because I’ve had several major projects going on and we’ve been short handed...but that all ended this week!!!!!!! All projects are finished and they “released” the new guy from training finally 3 weeks ago, so I got my first 3 day weekend this week! Here’s how it’s gone:

DAY 1:

slept in.....damn it was nice, made pancakes and sausage for brunch, put some ribs on the pit for dinner, did yard work and some “honey do’s” around the house, had a few beers while finishing the ribs, had a nice dinner with the wife which lead to spontaneous “adult fun” before bed time 😋, cuddled up on the couch and watched Netflix then more “adult fun” at bedtime ( holy crap...twice in one day!)

DAY 2:

Golf, beers, burgers and tall tales with my buddies! Dinner out with the wife, then went for drinks and cards at some friends. More “adult fun” at bedtime ( wow, I could get used to this)

DAY 3: (Today)

Golf with the bros (teetime is in 45 minutes) Watch football this afternoon, grilling burgers for dinner, cuddle up for TV with the wife tonight and who knows I might try to keep my other streak going too 🤪
