       | I think that's a huge benefit of these non-holiday days off. I
       | don't work at Epic, but at my employer when one of these comes
       | up, half of the time I use it to take the day to work in complete
       | peace. No slack / no email / no webex
       | 
       | It's bliss, and I enjoy it very much. The other half of the time
       | I go out and do something.
       | 
       | The choice is part of the benefit mentally as well.
