It is already a state holiday almost everywhere, but that usually only benefits state employees. The fed ones usually trickle down to us regular working folks. I wonder what @Kzoo will decide?

Road Runner Posted June 17, 2021 Share #11 Posted June 17, 2021 Labor Day and Presidents Day are stupid and useless federal holidays. Congress needs to get rid of those imbecilic celebrations. We don't need a day off to celebrate laborers or past presidents. Let's move on. The greatest achievement of mankind was landing on the moon. No holiday. Presidents who sucked, holiday.

Parsnip Totin Jack ★ Posted June 18, 2021 Share #16 Posted June 18, 2021 Work announced that we will get a floating holiday in July for Juneteenth. Decision on the Federal holiday was too fast for us to prepare for so I get 8 hours of pay for a date to be chosen later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
