Your job package: 10 vacation days, 3 religions...and 23 holidays
Officials in France are now considering "breaking centuries of European tradition by making an Islamic feast and a Jewish holy day official school holidays...'France will be the first non-Muslim country to recognize Eid al-Fitr and the only country apart from Israel to celebrate Yom Kippur,' said Patrick Weil, a member of the special commission that proposed the new holidays." Expect this to make the cover of The Economist next week (they're sooo "yesterday's news").
