We have Friday off 🤷🏻‍♂️

Yes, but godless capitalism prevails.

Yeah. How many do we get off for?

Funny enough we have Earth day rather than Easter. Lol

We get all fridays off before the holiday. Every agency I’ve worked at does this. But I’m in Canada, so…

Mine gave us Friday off!

We didn’t have MLK day off until white people got into diversity for capitalism’s sake.

Nope.

Good times. Now its like we get nothing off. I wish we were off tomorrow

We have like 10 holidays, plus Christmas week.
