Go home, it's Friday afternoon

One thing I'd forgotten about Calgary when I last lived here. Many businesses let the workers go home early on Friday. 9 hours M-T, then 4 hours on Friday so you can get out and enjoy the sun. I love it, because it means I can do my IT support when the office vacates on a Friday, so I don't need to work on Saturday

Calgarians aren't workaholics like back in Toronto. I can remember walking around the towers of commerce and seeing people at their desks at 7 PM. You're lucky if you see people at their desks here at 5 30.
