Do you get off school (or work) for MLK Jr. Day? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

TheHappyBurgerMeister · 01-14-2005, 03:05 AM

Well, I do because I'm not working right now and I don't go back to school until next Thursday anyway.

But, when I was still in High school or grade school we NEVER had off for the day. I guess Wisconsin was one of the states that didn't require you to have off. So, all the schools (which would be 2 of them) I went to never let us have off. I know that in Illinois all the schools get off.

I never work on Mondays, so yes. I think we got it off in college though.

TJL · 01-14-2005, 05:43 AM

I probably have to work.

*MIBabe03* · 01-14-2005, 10:54 AM

Well I haven't started back to school yet and won't until the day after MLK day. So yes, I don't have to go to school that day.

HuntingtonM15 · 01-14-2005, 11:09 AM

Yes, I have Monday off for school. When I was in high school, the only year I got it off was my senior year.

Brent88 · 01-14-2005, 11:29 AM

Have been off every year since I can remember.

Mijada · 01-14-2005, 01:59 PM

Heck no. My boss is so predjudice. MLK Jr. day is the last day he would let us have off.

MaydayMalonesGirl · 01-14-2005, 02:02 PM

Mhmm. I also have today off.

Sargent Stewie · 01-14-2005, 04:20 PM

I do.

Hollow · 01-14-2005, 04:24 PM

ya.

TheGreatPretender · 01-14-2005, 04:40 PM

Yes but it's not like I can just ly around the day before midterms start.

~*Dailey'sGurl*~ · 01-14-2005, 09:33 PM

LOL, wrong dates.

Anyway, no I don't personally get off, but those who do have been off since last Friday due to Lee-Jackson Day.

vienna waits · 01-14-2005, 10:08 PM

Yes. I read the letter from Birmingham Jail today in government. That's some powerful stuff...
