Working on Thanksgiving

A few weeks ago people made a huge deal out of Costco deciding to keep their doors closed on Thanksgiving. When it happened I couldn’t believe that it was this big of a deal that people didn’t have to work on a day that is considered a national holiday. No one should have to work on Thanksgiving. Thanksgiving is already bad enough that we celebrate a time where the pilgrims from the old world came to the new and slaughtered countless natives. This should definitely be one of those holidays that no one works on.


Employees not having to work on a national holiday should not be front-page news. This should be very low-key common practice. No one should have to work on a national holiday, when they could be with their friends and families.
