Only asking because New Year's Day was on a Sunday, do you observe Monday?

(1,850 posts)Because 1/1/23 fell on a Sunday, banks and post offices and federal offices are closed today, Monday.
Mostly everything else is open.

(25,862 posts)July 4, Veterans Day (November 11),Dec 25 (Christmas Day) and Jan 1 (New Years Day), the day off for federal, state, and many other workers is on Friday.
If the holiday falls on a Sunday, the day off is Monday.
Personally, as someone who always worked weekends and holidays, I think they should be observed on the day without an extra day off. Very mean-spirited of me, I know.
Meanwhile, Thanksgiving is always observed the fourth Thursday in November.
All the other federal holidays are observed on a Monday.

(2,820 posts)I took a vacation day since things are so slow at the moment. Normally, the 1st would be a paid day off if during the week. I'm not sure how that works for the weekend shift. I'm assuming they get the day off and we get what's called a floating Holiday to use whenever we want but they haven't sent out the 2023 schedule.
