You feel the same about the military taking off Thranksgiving? How about the hospital, police station, fire station? Would you want them to send home prisoners so the guards could enjoy turkey at lunch? When the cable goes out 30 seconds after the football game starts wouldn't you be on the phone complaining there aren't workers repairing the signal immediately? Would you deny a poor working stiff from getting a paycheck because you think they should be home? It's not like employees are already being hurt by hours and insurance being cut but you want them to close Pizza Hut or whatever business so they lose a day of pay. Who knew there was an official hour that the turkey must be carved. Noon, mid afternoon or a late dinner doesn't matter.
Boo friggin hoo.
