Happy Thanksgiving to all of our clients and business partners! We're looking forward to a long weekend, kicking off the holiday season, and cranberry sauce over here at Optis. We hope you have plans for a nice holiday as well.
In HR, we see a lot, we deal with a lot, but there is also a lot to be thankful for. During this week of thanks, we'd like to celebrate eight reasons HR professionals can be thankful!
1. Open enrollment only comes once a year.
2. Thanksgiving = a day off.
3. Awesome tweets chats, such as [#nextchat](https://twitter.com/search?q=%23nextchat&src=typd), [#HRISchat](https://twitter.com/search?q=%23HRISchat&src=typd), [#tchat](https://twitter.com/search?q=%23tchat&src=typd).
4. The business casual dress at conferences – long live flats for walking those exhibit halls!
5. All of the swag you can get a conferences. Margaritas anyone?
6. Daily lunch breaks with [DriveThru HR](http://www.drivethruhr.com/).
7. There’s now a cloud software solution to [track FMLA](https://www.leavexpert.com/).
8. And you can [trial it for free](https://www.leavexpert.com/) and gain access immediately, without a demo, RFP process or drawn out implementation.
Have a safe and happy holiday weekend!
