I'd just love to introduce holiday pay of any kind.

You win.

Apparently there is some sort of holiday arrangement for salaried workers. But nothing for us hourly workers. And being a casino, we're open 24 hours 365 days a year. No such thing as just a skeleton crew on holidays either, we have a pretty large demographic whose cultural values are to get the family together and go gambling to celebrate holidays. I'm looking at having concerts in languages I don't know on Thanksgiving and the night before, as well as Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. (I'll have one of these off.) Then of course being in the entertainment business as well, I'll be working a New Years Eve party. All at my standard straight rate, unless of course I end up going over 40 hours between Friday and Thursday.

Mind you, my standard rate isn't bad at all, and we do get a free lunch on Thanksgiving as well as every day from Dec 22 through New Years Day. I just wish they would pay some sort of compensation for holidays, even if its just the Big Six.
