[Asteriskhead]

we should have more national holidays where you don't actually have to show up to work. lets make, like, nine more versions of labor day.

I'm a strong proponent of the 4 day work week being nationalized

absolutely. everybody work four 10's, then you get an extra day to party rock with your buds.

How about we cut it down to four 9's?

[star seed 7]

4 9s seems like a good compromise

They have these in England and call them "bank holidays" but obviously everyone gets them off too.

It'd be cool if everything actually shut down on National Holidays.

I'd prefer a 5 day workweek with 6 hour days

Pretty much describes two months of my job. Makes going back to five days of 10 hours rough for a week or so. I'd take your suggestion year round if I could.

who decides what day holidays are on each year?  obvs 1/1, 7/4 and 12/25.  i'm talking about those other shits. 
i am guessing there's a committee who meet and decide but honestly it's all kind of frustrating.  i tend to get labor day and memorial day a bit mixed up from time to time.  oh well, am i a holiday hillbilly?  you bet.  complete holiday n00b.

There is some rule for each one. Like first Monday which occurs after a Saturday in May....or something like that.

Labor Day is annually held on the first Monday of September.

Memorial Day  is observed every year on the last Monday of May.

Washington's Birthday, also known as Presidents' Day, is a federal holiday held on the third Monday of February.

Columbus Day is is on the second Monday of October.

Veterans Day is observed annually on November 11.

Thanksgiving is celebrated on the fourth Thursday of November.

Determining the date for Easter is really confusing and depends on the March Equinox and apparently there has been some debate about it.
