      i know 2 of them are on holiday today, what about the other 3?

      it's not a german national holiday

      they are allowed to do flexible hrs and so it's possible they've made up time to bugger off today

      i'm paid an hrly rate, decisions decisions
      The company closed down last night. Didn't they tell you?
      How did this happen? Who's to blame? Well certainly there are those more responsible than others, and they will be held accountable, but again truth be told, if you're looking for the guilty, you need only look into a mirror.

              this is germany, there would have been a notice sent round..

              I plan to get what I would normally drag out to a full day done before lunch, grab some food and then wander into town for the evening early afternoon

                I suspect you mean you are going perving at the mixed nude sauna at the mineral bad!

                  Germans tend to be a bit less prudish compared to their American cousins. There are no separate locker rooms for males or females. http://www.germanytraveladvisor.com/stuttgart_spa.html
