Since I am retired I don't have to worry about holidays. For years we
all had a day off and those who had to work were paid extra. Stores were
closed. Now stores are open on most holidays. Holidays have become
shopping days. AFAIAC they may as well do way with Sunday and holiday
closings... do away with holidays. If everyone thinks that stores should
stay open so that they can shop on holidays, then their businesses can
be open too.
