So we are about to enter into the fancy number year 2020.
I always have that curiosity to check the holidays schedule first. I am used to it from my school days.
In my school days, I used to check my diary but now I am checking official email from HR 🙂
In the coming year, many of the holidays falling on Monday followed by Wednesday.
