Correction please. Most workers do not get Martin Luther King’s birthday as a paid holiday or day off. It hasn’t caught on in the private sector as much as the supporters of the holiday had hoped.

That’s true. I was at work all day yesterday at a small law firm and I didn’t get holiday pay. This story made me really angry.

Which frankly amazes me. By now I thought the din of cries of “racist!” would have gotten them all to cave.
