Yes. It shouldn't be a holiday anyway.

:shocked:

Nothing against MLK, but who else's birthday is a holiday? Jesus. I think that's it. There used to be holidays on Washington's and Lincoln's birthdays I think, but they combined them into Presidents Day. So all of the past presidents get combined into one day, but one specific civil rights activist gets his own holiday? 😕 Call it Civil Rights Day and my opinion would be different, even if it was still on MLK's birthday (observed).

I thought there was a President's week 😕
 
My office is closed, but since I have to bill hours, as my former boss once said, "as long as you have a key to the door, the office is always open." So, I was going to put in a full day.

Unfortunately, I have to go to a funeral and post-funeral stuff for a very close friends dad all day instead.

I guess, you could say I wish I was going to work.

And they didn't even get his birthday right 😉

Don't feel bad, it's a common problem. The Catholic Church didn't even get Jesus' birthday right...
 
Monday is my Friday at work. Tuesday is my Saturday regarding work yet it's my Monday for school.

:disgust:
 
Yup. I'm in a post office no less.

The front counter may be closed but the guts are in full swing. The only day they actually shut down is Christmas day.
