Vladimir Putin, speaking on Thursday at the congress of the Russian Union of Industrialists and Entrepreneurs, proposed to reduce the “protracted” New Year holidays, adding weekends in May. “It would be quite possible to make all these Christmas holidays exactly on January 7th, Christmas, and everything that accumulates further to transfer, say, May,” said the Russian Prime Minister. Industrialists and entrepreneurs
They burst into applause
. “I mean,” explained the presidential candidate in Russia, “that, as a rule, weekends fall in this period of time, they are added to the common holidays, it turns out
10-11 days,
And, apparently, it’s already hard for health. ” Taiga.info asked Novosibirstsev what they think about Putin’s proposal.
Anna Petrash, editor of the sites Erabeta.ru and rabota.ru:
“I think this is a reasonable idea. In the seven days of the January holidays, it is quite possible to satisfy the need for outdoor activities, communicating with relatives and friends, as well as have time to get bored at work. Personally, I have enough weeks of New Year's Eve. I would still prefer more time to relax in May, when warm and literally everything has everything for walks, campaigns, picnics.
In addition, the failure in work for almost two weeks in many areas often turns into the abrasions into the remaining workdays of January. The New Year's holidays in 10 days are good for those who competently can plan a vacation (for example, fly to warm countries or go to a ski resort), and for those who spend all the time before the TV and the refrigerator - and we have a lot, this is a difficult period of life. Prolonged inaction leads to all -consuming laziness, which does not affect the ability to work in the best way. Therefore, in my opinion, it really makes sense to go to work a couple of days earlier, then it will be easier to get involved in work, and the results will be better, and the remaining couple of days can be relaxed in the spring. ”
“I can say that Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin always thinks correctly. 99% of the residents of Novosibirsk of the same opinion "
Rostislav Shilo, director of the Novosibirsk Zoo:
“I can say that Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin always thinks correctly. Because 99% of the inhabitants of Novosibirsk are the same opinion. Five or three days to relax for the New Year, and the rest is in May, when the cottages begin, you need to sow, plant, and with the children you can go to the country. They would also have prompted Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin so that Saturday would be rearranged since April and for the summer, so that the children would not study either. And then all parents “study” with children - they cannot go to the country and rest normally. This is another problem. So write Putin. So that the children do not study on Saturday. A categorically positive solution.
Our animals have a holiday like everyone else. For the New Year, we give them a double portion of feed. And, if the weekend is postponed, everything will be the same for animals. If it is better for people to relax in May, then I am for it. Despite the fact that in January then I will earn less. But people will enjoy. I'm on their side. Not everything is expressed in money. ”
Oleg Ivaninsky, Chairman of the Committee on Social Policy, Health, Labor Protection and Employment of the Legislative Assembly of the Novosibirsk Region:
“I believe that so far, not all residents of Russia can afford to go somewhere in the warm lands during the New Year holidays. Unfortunately, the minority of people does this. You know perfectly well that the winter tours that go on New Year's holidays are the most expensive. It’s just a hi-class by airplanes, and in tickets, and in hotels. Therefore, this is a plus for the mass of people who have three days more on May holidays, and this is wonderful. In the best case, most people can afford to ride in suburban forests, somewhere nearby. Therefore, I believe that the bulk of the inhabitants of our country will be happy to work in May in May and spend time in the sun. I think this is an interesting initiative, it needs to be supported. And those who can afford to fly abroad for the New Year holidays are basically not burdened by a rigid working schedule.
My opinion is as a doctor - the more a person rests, the better. Seven days are a good break for the New Year, you can even make a weekend on December 31 so that people can calmly prepare for the New Year. ”
Olesya Tarasova, press secretary of the Novosibirsk hydroelectric power station:
“This year, sociologists of VTsIOM recorded a record number of Russians, pleased with their long winter holidays. 8% more compared to previous years. This suggests that people have already begun to take shape a certain tradition of holding their New Year holidays, and they know what to do over time. We have learned to plan a vacation and came to taste.
"In winter, the spectrum of rest is large thanks to the state of water in three types - skiing, skating rink and sauna"
Winter and spring are wonderful times of the year. In winter, the spectrum of rest is large thanks to the state of water in three types - skiing, rink and sauna. In the spring everything blooms, I want to be more in the sun, rejoice at streams and the first foliage. Therefore, the decision to experiment with the time of Russians causes me only positive emotions. And the employees of the Novosibirsk hydroelectric power station are resting in January, like everyone else. Only the accounting department comes out two days earlier, and the operational group will always be on duty. ”
Natalia Lopatina, Director of the Book-Vinyl shop "Dog heart":
“This is another ridiculous innovation. That the New Year holidays are “heavy for health” is the nonsense of the blue mare. Who cheerful, he laughs, who wants to get drunk. It doesn’t matter if he will have seven days for this or 10. For me personally, New Year's holidays - hello from childhood. The school has long ended, and the first 10 days of the new year is still a vacation. I still cannot move away from the fact that there is no more transition to the winter time. It is strange that the comrades from the tandem believe that in our country it is necessary to change this particular. ”
Alena Kotova, deputy of the Council of Deputies of the city of Tatarsk:
“I think if the New Year holidays are limited to the seventh number, and the remaining couple of days will spread to May, it will be rationally. So, if we are talking about rest, it will be possible to observe the interests of those who dreamed of devoting all year to their family, active rest, companies of friends, and the interests of those who begin every spring with cleaning in summer cottages. If we are talking about the economy, then from this point of view, the reduction of the New Year holidays, of course, will only go into a plus. I am sure that everything will agree with me: with the advent of a long weekend to our life, January has become a dead month for business. ”
Yakov Novosyolov, Director of the Siberian Federal Center for Healing Nutrition:
“It all depends on people. If a person is conscious, then he can spend these free days with benefit, he will have the time and opportunity to follow the rules of a healthy lifestyle. Proper nutrition - a person has time to cook, and carefully eat properly. Go in for sports. If a person is unconscious, then he, of course, can use these long holidays on the other hand - overload the body with unhealthy food, alcohol, and so on. It all depends on the number of percentage of people.
"Of course, in winter it is still very cold, not like in the spring"
On the one hand, of course, the vacation is more full in the spring than in the winter. Because here is a higher daily activity, which was so lacking in winter. In the spring, all sorts of chronic diseases are more often exacerbated, which also requires a calm lifestyle, a rehabilitating lifestyle. Plus, again, spring is characterized by an aggravation of a deficiency of minerals, vitamins, which also does not contribute to performance. Therefore, if a person is conscious, then this does not play a role for him. If a person is unconscious, then this does not play a role - that in winter, that in the spring he can harm himself during the holidays. Indeed, a more calm lifestyle, the restoration of the body's forces are more relevant in the spring.
Of course, in winter it is still very cold, not like in the spring. People will be forced to go to work, respectively, the possibility of colds. Negative only in this. The only thing that can be negative is that people are already psychologically used to, that the New Year can do nothing for two weeks, but only entertain themselves, and still they will not work special on Christmas and the old New Year, as well as a healthy lifestyle. They will also arrange the same thing for themselves in May for their body. I am sure that some of the people will do just that. This will be bad for both labor productivity and health. ”
Alexander Kozlov, Chairman of the Federation of Trade Unions of the Novosibirsk Region:
“They have nothing more to do, Putin and everyone else, how to think about weekends. In the country we need to raise the economy, and we think how to transfer the weekend! Although, perhaps, it is necessary. But I believe that you need to work and think about Putin about the economy, and not about the days off and their transfer ...
No need to make bad people from our people. Our people are good, normal people! They can always work - in May or in January. They found the problem! Maybe from the point of view of the May affairs this is good-still people are engaged in gardens, gardens, but do not think that they work poorly. That less weekends are needed - yes, and the transfer - we just thought before the elections! There is nothing more to do to Putin? Let him deal with normal questions. Someone probably raised him.
“There is nothing more to do to Putin? Someone probably picked him up "
This is all nonsense! It is necessary that everything work, so that people receive normal wages, not lower than the subsistence minimum, so that there is no poverty, street children - that’s what to do! Is there really nothing to do the prime minister, the future president?! Transferred and all - what to think! I am outraged as a citizen of the Russian Federation. ”
Vyacheslav Mini, participant in the art group "Blue Noses":
“It's about working days. I don’t care, I don’t go to work. I have it - when I appoint myself, I have holidays then. And for the rest I do not know, the main thing is that children's holidays are not canceled.
This initiative with the holidays is literally three -year -old, or something. And before that there were three days of rest, and everyone went to work. But they continued to relax - “went to work” was conditionally called, especially in offices. And nothing, everything was fine. I can assume that many friends have it that it is hard to wallow until January 14, so I think, until some seventh, everyone will be normal, and the rest is on the blessed May days.
I do not see any political or functional background in this. Well, there is such an initiative, well, it comes from a presidential candidate, but this is not more or less than another some kind of change in life. ”
