Daily Holidays - May 27

Cellophane Tape Day In 1921, a banjo playing inventor went to work for the Minnesota Mining and Manufacturing Company, known as 3M. Four years later, Richard Drew walked out of his lab carrying the first roll of Scotch Tape. In 1930, he also created cellophane tape. Without this man, we’d still be wrapping up our Christmas packages with string. Celebrate Cellophane Tape Day by taping up anything you can get your hands on! https://www.daysoftheyear.com/days/cellophane-tape-day/

Sunscreen Day As Baz Luhrmann once sang “If I could offer you only one tip for the future, sunscreen would be it.” It’s sage advice! Years of health campaigns have ensured that we all know that sun screen is very important. In fact, it’s essential to wear and regularly reapply sun screen when out in the sun. https://www.daysoftheyear.com/days/sun-screen-day/

The employer has these silly requirements and there is the whole work thing to do today, but one must do what they can for the economic well-being of the nation!
