Today is Memorial Day in the US. Most, if not all, government business are closed today (Mail banks), and many delivery services for stores and shops.
I work in a warehouse for a small but busy airport. We aren’t getting any snacks, produce, drinks, fed ex, or UPD deliveries today. Most of what I handle is deliveries. So I’ll probably just be folding clothes for my whole shift.
So fuck that, if I’m working on a federal holiday while not doing most of my job, I’m only doin a half day. I’m pretty sure I’m getting holiday pay for working, but if I found out I’m not, I’m leaving immediately and telling them I’ll see them tomorrow. I’m honestly hoping I’m not getting the holiday pay so I CAN justifiably leave.
Thanks r/antiwork for hardening me against my work based anxieties
