Do you go to school in the South by any chance? We don't get any holidays off except for MLK, besides the obvious ones like Christmas and Thanksgiving. We have class on Labor Day, and if you take summer classes, Memorial Day and July 4th as well.

Nope, I got to school @ Michigan State University.

Ah, I see. Well in Michigan, the black population might be high enough for the same effect. Basically all the workers at my school are black, and there would probably be riots about working on MLK day.

Yep, that's what I meant by reverse discrimination :|

I have Monday off for the federal holiday the correct name of which is George Washington's Birthday.

No, George Washington's birthday is February 22.

Monday is the morphodite holiday known as "President's Day, created to give people yet another 3 day weekend.

You hate 3 day weekends? Do you also hate cupcakes and puppies?

I have the day off, but it doesn't mean much because I have mass catching up to do.

People bitching about days off? Are you bitter you didn't get a job where you get paid for getting the day off as well or what's the problem here?

I get 7 paid days off. New Year's Day, Memorial Day, 4th of July, Labor Day, 2 days for Thanksgiving, Christmas Day. I think we should get Veteran's Day too, but that should be all. To much shit gets piled up the more days off you have.

Did I say that I hate 3 day weekends?

Yes, I like cupcakes and puppies...they taste good.

I'm off from work. We didn't get MLK off though.

Our holiday lineup:

New Year's Day
President's Day
Memorial Day
4th of July
Labor Day
Thanksgiving (Thursday & Friday)
Christmas

Plus 3 floating holidays to cover any religious holidays not recognized.

Too many fucking holidays. July 4th, Christmas day, and New years day should be the only federally-recognized holidays.

i don't think there are enough holidays

No. I had no class on Friday for Undergraduate Break Day (aka "Suicide Prevention Day"), one of the two days I get off this quarter (the other being MLK Jr. Day). Undergraduate Break Day doesn't always coincide with Presidents' Day either.
