I asked Ion how long he would like to have off.. He said he wants to =eave Thursday and come back after the new year, around Jan.3. I mentioned=this to JE, and he said no, he can only have off xmas or New Year, not bo=h. He doesn't want him to abandon the project in the middle for 10 days.&=bsp; Do you want to speak with Ion about this? I'm not quite su=e how to handle this one?
