One of the great things about being a Smith’s franchisee is the fact that you can make your own schedule. The school has regularly scheduled long holidays at Golden Week, Obon and X-mas/New Year’s, but recently I was also able to take an additional holiday to Australia for a little sun, fun and scuba diving along the Great Barrier Reef.
Now, that in itself is nothing special, as quite a few franchisees take additional holidays. However, thanks to a little creative scheduling and some help from the secretaries at the Kyobashi office I was able to arrange a 9-day holiday without having to get a substitute teacher!
