[QUOTE="soberups, post: 989695, member: 14668"] In all seriousness, I wonder what the process would be to have this holiday changed? Having a holiday like the 4th on a Tuesday or Wednesday is an expensive logistical nightmare for a lot of companies. It doesnt work well for anyone. My wife was telling me about what a hassle it was to plan for a Wedensday 4th at her company of 60 employees. I know firsthand what a hassle it is for UPS. I can only imagine the billions of wasted dollars on a nationwide scale. The three-day weekend is a routine scenario that most companies can plan for with little difficulty, whereas the mid-week 4th is a royal pain in the ass. Perhaps this 142 year-old holiday tradition needs to be reevaluated and revamped to fit in with the needs of the 21st century. [/QUOTE]
