All the feds I know have an insane amount of vacation time. Why not just use a day?

Majority of private companies do shut down. I can’t imagine the federal government will be any less efficient if they close a few extra days.

We generally get a few hours off the day before (July 3rd). Not an entire day.

Sometimes my agency announces an additional day off late in the game when the 4th falls in a Thursday. 30-year Fed here. With a presidential election coming up we have a greater chance. We got a 10% COL raising last month (never happens!). Try to win votes.


I have fingers crossed they will announce tomorrow or Tuesday.

Because the federal government only gives federal holidays off. (Unless you work for DHS.)

I won't be there though. Using a vacation day.

July 5 is not a holiday.


And the 6th is a Saturday. What planet does it make sense to secure and open the offices for one day?
