Presents for Women Day


Last week all people in Ukraine celebrated the 8th of March - International Women Day ( for some reason in the Soviet times it was called international, though no one except for the soviet people celebrated it:-). For a Soviet woman it was the only chance to get a breakfast in bed and the only opportunity to see her husband cleaning the house and doing dishes. And of course traditionally all women were given tulips.

Soviet Union collapsed many years ago, but the holiday survived. And because this year it was on Sunday, all the people start to celebrate it on Friday(and some even on Thursday) and Monday was a day off too. 4 days of "official" drinking and one bouquet of tulips... that is what most women got. But some appear to be more lucky...

On Tuesday morning when everyone get back to work we found out that our managing Director was fired and a new one is the company's owner ( who is 70 year old I guess) 25 year old wife. What a surprise for everyone! Guess 3 tulips was not enough for her.
