Yes please. We go from ANZAC day in April to fucking December 25th before we get another public holiday in most of Australia.
I dread that 'public holiday drought' every year.
Move it to early September or something. Skips the worst of winter and breaks up the work year better.
There's the honorary kings bday in June/July (lazy and dont remember which). Then there's the one in October, Melbourne cup I think idk? So there's two in between. I think 3 would be nice. Thats one every couple of months. Others to many early on in the year anyway. It fucks up January to have one again that soon, having been working somewhere that doesn't close over Christmas + new years.
Come to sunny Melbourne and get grand final day and Melbourne cup day
