Why we can't have more holidays?
To celebrate Chinese New Year, the most important festival in China, we'll have 7-days holiday starting from Jan. 31 to Feb. 06. But it seem we can't have such a long vacation, we have to work on Jan. 26 (Sunday) and Feb. 8 (Saturday) to make up for it. Given Feb. 1 and Feb. 2 are weekend, actually we only have 4-days leave for this most important festival in China. I have to ask Why we can't have more holidays? Working on weekends is ilegal in western countries to some extent, but we take it for granted. Why?
