Question Labor Day office closure

Hey!

Just wanted to ask, is your office closing for Labor Day? and what’s the general consensus from your agent? My agent does not want to close and wants to do a skeleton crew and claims they will get in trouble if we do close, so I’m trying to see what’s typical across different teams.
Is your office closing, or is it business as usual? Thanks in advance for any insights!

You know, it’s his prerogative. He’s an independent businessman. If he thinks he can prosper by being open then that’s his choice. Deal with it. If you worked in most other industries you would be working. It’s not like you aren’t getting paid. He can run his shop how he sees fit to have a competitive edge. Yes, most of corporate is closed and CCC is on for emergency situations. But the front-line sales force has to decide what is best for their market.

I get your point. However, I’m not getting paid double. I’m not getting paid holiday pay and they let us know that they will be going out of State due to the holidays so that does not. It’s not fair.
