So you want the day off. Let's take a look at what you're asking for.

There are 365 days per year available for work.

There are 52 weeks per year in which you already have 2 days off per
week, leaving 261 days available for work.

Since you spend 16 hours each day away from work, you have used up
170 days, leaving only 91 days available.

You spend 30 minutes each day on coffee break; that accounts for 23
days a year, leaving only 68 days available.

With a 1 hour lunch period each day, you have used up another 46 days, leaving only 22 days available for work.

You normally spend 2 days per year on sick leave; this leaves you only
20 days available for work.

We are off for 5 holidays per year, so your available working time is
down to 15 days.

We generously give you 14 days vacation per year, which leaves only
1 day available for work, and I'll be darned if you're going to take
that day off!!
