Since when do companies care about federal holidays? If you get Christmas, Thanksgiving, Memorial Day, Labor Day and July 4th off you’re amongst the lucky ones.

I've had off for both Juneteenth and Columbus Day and all federal holidays at multiple different private companies that used the Federal Holiday Schedule as their holiday schedule

It's clearly not rare if 44% of Americans are getting a work holiday on Juneteenth.

Florida seems pretty stingy with the holidays overall.

I worked Xmas day for many years in a row. I'm salaried and in tech. Holidays are bullshit.

I hope your career has provided you with other substantial benefits.

Holidays are for federal employees and salaried employees. That's it. Been like that for as long as I can remember.
