Ok I can't not comment - sorry to the rest of the group.
I am very sorry that your wife is forbidden to take time off around holidays - but lest we forget that teachers are home when their kids are home (easing daycare issues) and they have oh, 2 months off in the summer for your vacation allotment. So I understand that it is difficult to have restrictions on when time can be taken - I have a lot of friends who are teachers - but why do you think teachers are the only ones with restrictions on when vacations can be taken. Don't post unless you intend to keep it... this one is still out there.
I now also rescind my comment from my post last night that this board has been civil and respectful - your comments are neither.
