Inclusion Paradox Sighting: Eid Holiday and the Corporate Global Calendar
Posted on September 16, 2009
Something to keep in mind when scheduling meetings in a global organization:
Dear All -
On the occasion of Eid Al Fitr the office in Dubai will be closed, depending on sighting of the moon as follows:
20 and 21 Sept 2009
OR
21 and 22 Sept 2009.
If declared as 20 and 21 Sept then our office will resume as of 22nd Sept otherwise our office will be working 20th Sept and resume on 23rd Sept 2009.
Wishing each and every one a bless Eid Al Fitr.
Kind regards.
