Oh my god thank you. Workers definitely deserve to be paid more if they work that day. I think it’s that you get 1.5 times more your normal pay for holidays at the company I worked at. Which was fine, but then they started taking off several holidays that used to be on the list of days you’d get the bonus on, like Easter, Valentine’s Day, St. Patrick’s, 4th of July, etc. Seemed to be that the only ones left were the major two or three, Thanksgiving, maybe Black Friday, and Christmas Eve. :/

I might be wrong with what exact holidays they took off the list, but it became pretty miserable hoping that at least if you were working a holiday you’d get that bonus 1.5 but then show up to work and have yet another holiday where all the workers are peeved cause it wasn’t the case. Frustrating. Workers definitely deserve the x2 or x3, probably depending on the holiday (like Christmas and Thanksgiving if they have to work could be the triple? The rest can be double) especially if companies are knocking holidays off of their list of holiday bonus days.

Edit: accidentally said Halloween instead of Black Friday, and Christmas instead of Christmas Eve.
