This year we have the option of taking that Monday off or it qualifies for double pay.

Our company added it to the vacation calendar last year.

Gents, are your employers observing Juneteenth as a federal holiday this coming Monday? Here in the vicinity of Raleigh, NC 75% of the people I have asked are not or didn't know it was a federal holiday. Banks will be closed of course. I co-own a small business and am curious.

Sorry, I’m not very smart, what is Juneteenth?

Thank you

A close friend told me the story(s) of Juneteenth and I was SHOCKED with emotions.

Now I know the sadness of it , I have no words.

You got a bar around here or do you just make it/bottle it?

Wine shop in Cary just down the sidewalk from La Farm bakery.

Think we as a nation should make this an official BBQ Holiday.
