Who gets those days for free? Every company I've worked for took those from your leave days. Only difference is that some force you to take the leave and others don't really care either way?

Many companies are way too greedy.
 
Pfft means nothing to me. Just means I have to work in my contract hourly quota some other time ....

WATCH | Ramaphosa compares adversity Boks faced in retaining World Cup to SA's economic challenges | News24

He blatantly used it to promote the ANC.

Ramaphosa said the energy action plan that he announced in July last year was showing "positive results, giving us greater confidence that we will bring load shedding to an end."

15th is when my leave starts anyway. And I am forced to take it as compulsory because I have too many days accumulated. Meh

yeah but now you'll have to take an extra day somewhere else, like the 14th, to get your leave balance down because the 15th won't count as annual leave anymore
 
We all know Cyril needs the extra day to prepare his vellies and voorlaaier to re-enact shooting Zulus on Geloftedag.
 
so everyone complaining about the holiday Ciril brought in are part of the EFF.

I was actually referring to the private sector only, but if we include government, then nothing is going anywhere, hence the reason government has ran out of money.
