Today is the last day of May, and that means that from tomorrow we move into “Cool Biz” season. That means that it is officially OK to stop wearing a tie to work, and save money on air conditioning fees. It is a constant source of amusement to me that this rule is implemented regardless of the temperature outside – if the globe continues to heat up over the next 50 years there will still be people waiting until June to lose the necktie. Change happens slowly around here.
But today I am going to work without the tie, in the tiniest act of rebellion ever. I’m doubting that anyone will really care, though. Just an experiment – we’ll see how it pans out.
Yesterday despite the early morning rain warning students were going to school, and Kuniko had to teach yesterday. I guess there is a last minute check that everyone does, and at the last minute they changed their minds and kids were required to go to school. They made the right call, though – yesterday was a much nicer day.
