I have it in my calendar simply as "no work". I don't need to know why I don't work on company holiday days.
However, I found out banks will be closed as well which is annoying, and transactions won't process until Tuesday. I'm buying another car and would've done it Monday but I can't get to my money at the bank on account of it.

His own people have forgotten his message so no need for me to remember his holiday.

The fact that Hochul moved a game to the afternoon tells you all you need to know. They think everybody has it off because they do.

Juneteenth is more meaningful. President Joe Biden signed the bill ( Pub. L. 117–17 (text) (PDF)) on June 17, 2021, making Juneteenth the eleventh American federal holiday and the first to obtain legal observance as a federal holiday since Martin Luther King Jr. Day was designated in 1983.

I'm pissed cuz the stock market isn't open tomorrow.

In the real world, where men build things with their hands, this was never a recognized holiday.

THIS.

I've closed my business on the day in years past but not anymore. I wish Dr. King was alive to see how lost his movement got once the spigot of free shit started flowing.

I deleted my father's number from my cell phone and for 24 hours I will pretend I don't know him.

The day we "honor" a well known plagiarizer and whore beater.

It also tells us that in about two weeks we get a month of being impressed by their many contributions that have made this country great!
