Is that considered a "regular" day or do you get "holiday" compensation?

We get holiday pay (double time) when we work on the following days:
New Year's Day
Martin Luther King's Day
President's Day/Washington's Birthday
Memorial Day
Independence Day
Labor Day
Columbus Day
Veteran's Day
Thanksgiving
Christmas Day

We get paid time & a half when we work on our birthday. And since my birthday is ON Christmas Day, I always make sure I work that day. (Triple time & a half-that's nearly $800.00 just for showing up. Yeah, I can be a scrooge for ONE day). :lol:
