OP here—I think 12/24 is less likely than 12/26 because Xmas is on a Thursday, and presidents seem to prefer to pick a day to close that will make a long weekend. But you never know, 12/24 has happened before in the middle of the week!

You must know by now, this president is nothing like previous presidents. My guess is no for 12/24 and another no for 12/26. But 12/25, yes.

Assume you have to work the entire day, and consider it a happy gift if you don't. Just as I have for many years. If you are that desperate to go home early a couple of hours on the 26th, put in for annual leave.

Why the strong reaction and Grinchy attitude? This is just meant to be fun speculation for feds who have had a rough year. I personally leave approved on 12/26. I am at my use or lose limit, so I hope to know soon whether I should switch that leave to another day or not. At any rate I have a lot of work to get done so I might not be able to use it in another day. C’est la vie.

Besides, it’s not often that we got a whole day off from any President.

There will likely be a couple of hours of early release on the 24th. That's all that is likely. Don't get greedy. If you want the 26th off, put in for leave.

Do you think that Canada is waiting for an opportune time to invade ?

There is a movie about this. LOL

Trump 1.0 gave us the 24th off. Trump 2.0 hates us and has left all his decisionmaking to Stephen Goebbels, so my guess is no. Most ppl at my agency are taking leave on the 26th.

Or, you know it’s a work day. We already get plenty of holidays and leave time. If you don’t want to work on a work day, take leave.

Huh? No, federal workers just want to know if they will have a day off or whether they need to use leave or work that day. Usually the president closes the government on 12/26 when it’s a Friday, but federal workers have learned not to expect anything positive this year.

Didn't most Federal Workers just have 40 days of closure?

No, most Feds were working daily without knowing when the next paycheck would come.

No, most Feds weren’t working and knew they would get paid when the gov reopened.
