Random Thoughts: National Engineers Week

This morning I had to check on the intranet portal at my work to make sure my required training was marked as completed. (It was, if you care.) Yesterday, there was a big splash "ad" in the news section that showed a Black History Month banner. Today, it has been updated to identify this as National Engineers Week. Now, maybe its just me, but when something is called a "Week", I feel it should span 7 days. Sure, the banner says the "Week" is Feb. 18 - 24, but when you only post that on the 22nd in a work-related area, the "Week" only lasts from Feb. 22 - 23. Anyway, it really makes you feel special when your employer praises you for a whole week two days per year.
