Can we afford two-day weekend?

Actually, we cannot afford weekly holidays at all if we deeply ponder over the issues of the country. Government or semi-government staff will enjoy holiday but offices must remain open. Two or three shift offices should be introduced. Customers will receive service and officials and staff will work up to a particular time. The nature of job of all establishments is not the same. So it is unnecessary to start and finish office at the same time. Post offices, banks, hospitals, police stations, educational institutions and business establishments must have their own timing. Our post offices and banks follow peculiar timing.

When all other offices remain open, post office is also kept open . Now how can the people who work in different offices receive postal service? The big bosses can get their works done by their peons but what about other staff? Even post office remains open up to five but that does not mean that people get the service from post office and banks up to five. They follow a peculiar time of their own. For money order one has to go to the post office before twelve. After twelve it is absolutely impossible to get this work done.

To avoid these problems and extending customer service, post offices, banks, and all such organisations in the service sectors must remain open up to night. As the nature of their jobs are different, so what's the harm? The staff of these offices will replace their colleagues in different shifts without affecting the normal affairs of the office. If it is done, the wheel of development will run smoothly and quickly. Otherwise, matters will not improve.
