There are 365 days in a year. In a leap year 366. Let us be generous and begin with 366.

Days in the year: 366 days
Eight hours of sleep each day
equals a total of: 122 days
________
Leaving- 244 days

Eight hours of rest each day
equals a total of: 122 days
________
Leaving- 122 days

You don't work Saturdays and
Sundays, so subtract: 104 days
________
Leaving- 18 days

You do have an hour for lunch
each working day: 10 days
________
Leaving- 8 days

Out of these eight working days, you must surely have at least one week's holiday a year.

Which leaves you with a single day to work on.
And that's Christmas Day.
And nobody works on Christmas Day.



Enjoy {toothy}
