Where do you work? Good Friday has always been a holiday at any job I had.

It's because Christians are the most persecuted group in the US

They usually aren’t adding religious holidays and I guess Good Friday wasn’t prevalent enough vs easter being off.

I do have a theory about Juneteenth getting so much hype.

Basically they want to slowly replace MLK Day in the corporate
world because we already have too much time off in Nov/Dec/Jan.
But it looked bad to drop the black history holiday.
water Juneteenth which is abandon day in the summer where you only have a scattering of days off.

Then explain why Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur are not bank holidays either.

Yeah, they were closed at the start of Passover last week, and are still closed now since Passover isn't over.

Postal Service catches hell for having so many days off already, we don’t need another one.
