Does your company celebrate holidays? I know it’s logistics and packages never stop delivering so if they don’t offer days off is your flexible with PTO around the holidays?

We get all the government holidays off. I like taking a week off around Christmas as well, and that's never been an issue. I just make sure to get the request in well in advance and it's always approved.

I wish we had all government holidays off!

We don't really get many holidays off at my company to be honest with you. I have had other jobs where I got tons of holidays so it kind of stinks not getting those anymore but it is what it is.

I feel as though most jobs don’t have many holidays off nowadays. Thanks for sharing!
