Stressed? Sign up for National Slacker Day
By Reuters, 8/21/2003
LONDON -- Stressed-out Britons are set for a day of doing nothing as workers and managers alike are being urged to relax and slack off on Friday.
Organizers of National Slacker Day are calling on people to "stand up for your right to sit back down again" as a reminder that life does not revolve around the office.
With British employees working the longest hours in Europe, the campaign wants people to recognize the value of rest and relaxation.
"How can you possibly comprehend the value of your own hectic endeavor if you don't occasionally put your feet up and experience a state of complete calm," said actor and Slacker Day supporter Simon Pegg, star of the comedy series "Spaced."
Organizers are also promising on their Web site www.slackerday.com to contact blue-chip firms to urge them to set up a disciplinary framework for staff who insist on working through the slackest day of the year.
Slacker Day is now in its third year and has been moved from February to August, taking place just before a long bank holiday weekend.
