Do you have Martin Luther King day off at work?
 

Simple pohl. Not meant to be political. Just trying to see how many folks have it off.

I get thanksgiving day, christmas day. Thats it.

We closed on Thanksgiving for the first time ever last year. We close on Easter, and Christmas as well. All other days are business as usual.

I'm a government contractor, so we get all the federal holidays.

I no longer have a job that sucks, so yes.

Turkey day and X-Mas. That's it. But for commercial pilots this is completely normal. For most sales reps as well.

**** no!

**** you!

Interested to see billay’s answer or if I need to hit up the glory hole on Sunday.

This.

I have the day off, but I just found myself committing to a 2 hour meeting...

ugh

Mostly a Gov. thing. I could take the day off if I wanted too because I am a professional.

But typically, many on my team(s) will burn a vacay day so I just don't do anything on that day. Maybe catch up on shit without interruption and meetings upon meetings, upon meetings. It's typical of me to not schedule any meetings on these types of holidays when I develop my communications plan early on. I also give them a zero when it comes to scheduling and budgetary concerns. International tasks go on as usual and provide an accomplishment document next day. Holidays such as these are not celebrated by me but are definitely taken advantage of.

I do have it off but didn't realize today that MLK day was Monday. Good thing a co-worker said something or I would have come in to work Monday thinking where the hell is everyone.

As a teacher previously and now a school bus driver, I've had it off unless we've had snow days before it. And even then only sometimes would they actually use mlk day as a male up day even though it was always on the calendar as such.

If I chose to.

Poll fail.

We have the "we encourage you to celebrate this holiday" followed by "if you choose to celebrate use personal time or flex hours accordingly"
