The company I work for is a federal government contractor, so it is one of our company holidays.

When I was in the private sector, it was one of a couple "floating" holidays that we could take off if we wanted to, but I never did.

This year it happens to coincide with the inauguration. Bonus!

Unless I'm on vacation, I take every single day off.

I wake up and go fishing or work on woodworking projects with the occasional chore like today I'll fire up my wood splitter and split some oak firewood.

But right now I'm just smoking a joint and drinking coffee.

Used to have MLK when I worked and always thought it or something would be better in the first week of August to break up the summer stretch from July 4 to Labor Day.

You can tell who’s a yankee carpetbagger here by who takes mlk day off


Real southern men only take off on Christian holidays like Easter and Christmas
