We decided that, as part of the deal when working at Cubby, any member of the team who has their birthday on a working day will automatically get that day off.
Not as leave, not with any lieu attached or hours to make up, just off. For free. Go away. Eat cake.
Because, as Cubby’s founder Ross reasoned “well... I don’t want to work on my birthday, so I’m not going to. And neither should anyone else.”
