Do you get MLK day off?

[DisneyAddict_M]

I have it off.

I had kinda assumed that dh had today off because he is a manager at an internet site. There is 24/7 customer support but the supervisors and managers and big wigs take ANY holiday as a day off. But not only did he have to go in, he had meetings scheduled for today.

I am a little teeved since I spent all day Saturday in the hospital for preterm labor and am at home on "bedrest" for a few days taking stupid terbutaline every 4 hours for contractions. And now i'm home with all 3 kids and I just took a pill an hour ago.... let the shakes start!

Aww sorry to hear about that,
looks like those kids will be watching videos all day today!!

Nope... I'm here. I work for a large insurance company and we are open 24/7. My husband on the other hand is Air force and happily home today.

Yes today is one of my paid holidays.

I work in the office of a construction company if you asked for today off the response would be yeah and we take off for greenbean day too. Apparently a long time ago someone asked about Good Friday and that was the response they got and now it's a running joke around here.

 

[candykisses]

I'm here today. I work for a telephone company. We do have the option to use a floating holiday if we wanted today off, but I'd rather use mine when I go to WDW in August.

 

[CourtasanSatine]

Pretty much every school not already off for MLK is off due to ice

 

[scrump]

Yes!

 

[Kahana-ri]

And I have had a very restful day.

 

[Sk8Leigh]

I was supposed to, but last week we found out that our department will have to work today and President's Day. But we get 3 floating holidays to replace the two days, so I can't really complain.

I'm a third shift worker in a nursing home. I worked last night but made double time and 1/2. Didn't mind working at all!

Do you have to work today? I work at an office and we have to work today. I wish we got today off with pay. I expect that most people who work in retail, restaurants, or hospitals have to work today, but I was really surprised to see that just about every business in our office park is open.

Today is a paid holiday for me as the markets and Fed are closed today. My husband had to work today but some of his coworkers who are under a different union contract had today as a paid holiday.

Off - Yes since I work for a school system and since I was sick on Friday I had a four day weekend! I was feeling better by Saturday night so it turned out to be a great holiday weekend.

 

[PattnFmly]

DH had to work, but I had it off. Unfortunately though, when MLK day became a holiday they switched up our holidays and took away Veteran's Day. Veteran's Day was a much better shopping holiday!

 

[TerryKitten]

It was a day off for me (I work for the state), but my son got sick this AM so all the fun stuff planned today was canceled for long snuggles and TLC on the couch.

 

[Beca]

And me? Well, being a SAHM, I NEVER get a day off!

DITTO!!!

A holiday for my dd just means more work for me!!!

 

[LuvDuke]

My boss is a real angel and gave me the day off today.

Btw, I'm self-employed.
