I think working today should be a voluntary thing. There’s enough people who would volunteer if respectfully asked and offered double pay that we can keep things running enough.

Everyone should be entitled to guaranteed time off.

When I was young and relatively poor I jumped at the chance for double pay on holidays. I always volunteered.

I always worked Christmas Eve when I was in the industry. Put on the punk Christmas playlist and enjoy the generosity of people who want to not be around their family and tip extra for the chance.

If that’s the case everyone should just be entitled to c number of paid holidays that they get to choose at the beginning of each year. There are so many religions that have holidays as important to them s Christmas that aren’t acknowledged by American society. Give everyone the option to take their own holidays, or their birthdays, or the anniversary of the opening of the Wawa at 288 and Broad, etc.
