[quote=Anonymous]There's a range of practices but if you want to find the widest sweep, don't schedule anything after noon on the 20th, or at all on the 21st and 22nd. All Jewish holidays start at sundown the night before the official date listed on the regular calendar. Therefore Rosh Hashana starts around 6 or 7 pm on the 20th. More observant people -- even those who only attend services on the High Holidays -- may leave work around 2 or 3 to get home early for a festive meal before going to synagogue. And then be in synagogue each of the next two days. Same story for Yom Kippur except it is the evening before plus one day.[/quote]
