Back to Work ....
Why the hell does my employer think that opening the plant and office for three days is a good idea?
This is beyond me................... the only reason I have for going to work for the next three days is that the policy also makes it mandatory.
If you don't show up or if you have not pre-booked vacation time (which can be denied at the management's whim) then you do not get paid for the statutory holiday (Jan 1st).
Besides the fact that I am a salaried employee it seems to me that if I choose to not go to work ... and give up the pay for those three days... then that should have not a damned thing to do with receiving the statutory pay.
Time for a new job !
File this one under failed HR policies.

Sometimes our socialist utopia isn't quite as socialist as we'd like it to be. I started working for the school division 13 days before Easter, think I got paid for Easter Monday? Nope, and that's unionized labour to boot...
aw heck Ommag...Happy New year anyhoo!..blessings and hugs!:)
Made it through the week .... barely.
Onward and upward ... this cowboy needs some R&R ... away from the dreary day to day.
Happy new year!
my shop is the same way. it was to prevent people from calling off for extended holidays, which puts a major kink in the production lines.
in my shop, you have to work the day before AND after every holiday.
i dont like it, but i cant see how we can run a production plant any other way.
