If you worked here you wouldn't think it s&&&ed at all. :-)
I know the break seemed interminable, but we keep to the same schedule year after year and trust me -- no one's rearranging the Jewish holidays. We closed for 2 days for Rosh HaShannah (sometimes called the Jewish New Year) plus a day for Yom Kippur (a solemn fast day -- a holy day but not really a holiday). We're closed every Saturday, or course. The week-long hiatus was for a holiday called Sukkos (or Sukkoth if your Dad's from the other side of town). While not as famous as Passover (after all, Charlton Heston didn't beat up Yul Brynner for this one) it's the same every year.
Sorry if you were inconvenienced.
A PERSONAL aside -- while I appreciate the comments about bashing, trust me when I say this forum is a model of civility compared to what I used to run into in the rec.photo Usenet groups and what I still see in dpreview.com's forums.
Personally, my one complaint is that, while I'm pricing lenses on Saturday, I keep getting the popup. I mean, after the first thirty or so I do get the idea.:D
heh heh... i'm sure you've been to the store in manhatten Andy... what a trip! Stuff packed in there to the ceiling with like 1000 hasidic jew's running around. They do have non-jews working there... the guy that sells studio lights is asian and knows his stuff.

Are they all paid holidays? If so, sign me up!
