Remembrance Day: Monday vs Tuesday
11/7/2008 at 8:02 AM
With Remembrance Day coming up, Tuesday is a day that most businesses will be closed.
At times when a "day off" falls on a Thursday or a Tuesday you will see many businesses (partuclarly offices) do a day swap and work on the official holiday so that they can close on Friday or Monday and have a long weekend.
I have heard of a few businesses that were planning to do this this on Monday/Tuesday.
Three questions, feel free to answer any or all:
- What do you think of this kind of swap in general, regardless of which holiday it is?
- What are your thoughts specifically on making this swap relating to Remembrance Day? Are they different from your answer to the last question?
- Do you know of any businesses that will be doing this on Monday/Tuesday (don't feel you have to name them if you don't want to)
