Interesting that most companies, especially ones without strong unions, only get 7 holidays - typically adding Good Friday and removing MLK, Columbus, Veteran's Day and President's Day.
You could argue Good Friday doesn't belong, but that's normally when schools are out so it makes sense because so many are taking vacations that week.
Agreed with combining Veteran's Day and Memorial Day.
Also agreed that maybe Columbus Day should be removed - offensive to Native Americans and somewhat redundant with Independence Day.
So I'm down to 6, but let's throw Washington's birthday back in there. Get to work you lazy bums!!!
