Help with salaried employee question

Hi. I was hired recently to work in a position for 30 hours a week. Many of my fellow employees who are considered full time work 32.5 hours a week. My place of employment is closed for federal holidays along with breaks for holidays. My employer and I agreed that I would could work 4 days a week but whenever we have a holiday she expects me to make up the time by working on the day I am technically off. When we started to discuss this and I mentioned that she didn't have the same expectations for her employees that work 32.5 hours a week, she agreed and said she wanted to be fair and figure out a solution but so far hasn't offered any. I like my job and would like to find a mutually agreeable solution but I'm not sure what that is. I am salaried as are most of the employees. Anyone have any ideas? Thank you in advance for your help.

Put together a regular schedule. If a Holiday falls on a day you would usually work, then you get that day as holiday. If it falls on a day when you wouldn't usually be there then no holiday for you. Don't pick Monday as your day off or you'll never get a holiday.

Alternately, figure out how many hours of holiday leave your coworkers get. Multiply it by 30/32.5 (92%). Figure out which 8% of the Holidays (probably less than 1 day) you will either make up or take unpaid.

Don't post something like this with an account name that uses your email address. Not smart.

There is nothing in this that I would be ashamed or embarrassed of if my boss saw it. We are both trying to figured out a solution.

I think an even bigger problem is that spam bots scan public forums all the time and pick up email addresses when they are listed. You can expect to start getting all sorts of garbage email at the address you use. It really is poor form to use you email as a username.
