Caught a cold in spite of the festival

About 3 days ago, I felt a bad condition little bit but I thought that it’s for only tired by hard job. But today’s morning, I woke up very early morning by bad condition. I soon checked my body temperature after waking up.

My body temperature is 37.3 degree Celsius. I have a low grade fever.

I remember about 3 days ago what to do. 27-Apr was a day off after a long time for me therefore I went to the beach in order to play flute and get suntan. I didn’t feel bad at that time but I might be caught a cold.

As you know, Japan has started long spring holidays from yesterday. It’s called “Golden week holidays” in Japan. And our city makes it a rule to do the biggest city event of parade at 3-May. Especially, the biggest festival of Matsubara shrine festival takes place between 3, 4, 5-May. I will be able to get a day off only 3 days between 3-May and 5-May in this year due to this festival. But now, I’ve got a cold unfortunately. Absolutely, I can’t get a day off therefore I’ll work. I can’t help wishing to recover my health as fast as possible.

A contract cancellation

A certain woman who is working for a coach was said by a company about a contract cancellation until end of May-2015 unfortunately.

She was a formal employee so long time ago but she became a contract worker after she had married.

So, she always had taken a day off and pulled up work early time due to her children engaged. She has two children and she is always called her child of kindergarten. For example, child has a fever by bad condition so on. Then she always asked me her proxy job every time. Absolutely, I always got her proxy job even if I can. But she couldn’t get my proxy because I didn’t get a day off.

She said, “I already decided next job therefore don’t worry.” According to her, she will work for a swimming coach again at other swimming school.

I think that there’s no choice because she always got day off. But our man can’t take day off the easiest than housewives. Our man couldn’t get a day off even if relation has passed away therefore I couldn’t take part in my relation’s funeral now and then. But housewives can take day off easy than man. They often use their child of bad condition. Absolutely, a company and we couldn’t confirm her reliability. Anyway, there’re lots of day off.

Listen to me, I got day off at least 3 or 4 times during a year but she had got day off 2 or 3 days per month!! I really can’t believe her reliability. But she could work 7 years after she became contract worker.

Why a company gives her day off easily like this? Why a company doesn’t give us day off when we really need?
