I noticed a sign in the City Hall Elevator today that said:
City Court will be closed on Friday July 3rd
in observance of Independence Day.
And here I thought that Independence Day was July 4th.
It’s comforting to know that Judges, Lawyers and Criminals
get to have that extra day off while you and I toil away.
What a country we live in. God Bless America.
Nancy,
Friday is the federally-mandated holiday in the event the Fourth of July falls on a Saturday. In the event it falls on a Sunday, then people get Monday off.
If people are working, I think most are eligible for holiday pay, which is usually time and a half. Or, you get a holiday to use later.
That's the case for me – I worked July 3 and will use my holiday in August, after the AC/DC concert in Albany 🙂
I didn't know this, thank you for bringing it to my attention. Enjoy the concert.
