For non-US readers, today is a holiday called Columbus Day.
Of course, if you're like me, you may not know that it's a holiday even if you're in the US...
Just got back from a trip to the bank, where I had planned to make a deposit. And obviously, being a holiday, it was closed.
This happens almost every holiday. If it's not one of the big ones like Christmas or Thanksgiving, I usually don't know about it.
Some people would think this is a bad thing. I don't see it as good or bad. But the fact that I can take off ANY day I want to is pretty good. And because of this, I don't worry about the days everybody else has to take off.
