That's the way it should be, but it doesn't work. Either the company shuts down or it doesn't. I have NOTHING against the Jewish religion, but their holidays don't sync with the popular ones. I think we should get those days off, too.

WTF do you think they are thinking while the rest are off on Christmas? Or take Good Friday off? They're thinking that the system sorta makes them out of place, that's what many Jews think. Throw away Columbus Day and let's get some parity so the schools and businesses aren't having to treat one day different than another.

I guess it won't ever work because then you've got the other religions.

At least you've got New Year's, which is pretty universal (that is until you consider the Chinese New Year )
