Don't you have 1 of January off? It's a public holiday here

Nope, I work in a facility that's 24 hour staffed. Holidays don't really apply to us. This was actually the first year I've even had Christmas off in like 5 years.

Want some help organizing a union? Paid holidays are something you can bargain for in a union contract, and I'm an experienced organizer

Do you get penalty rates?

A lot of service workers don't get New Years Day off, despite it being a federal holiday in the US.

The dollars must flow, or something like that.

Being a federal holiday doesn't mean shit in a country with the worst worker protections i the semi-developed world. No mandated holiday pay, no mandated vacations, just shut up and work
