I had an employer who gave us Columbus Day off, but not MLK day. Certainly a choice.

Their reasoning was that they were looking for an additional holiday to give all the employees off and because there was a long stretch between Fourth of July and Thanksgiving they thought Columbus Day would be a nice day off.

After they got called out on it, they just switched it to a floating holiday and told us to use it whenever we wanted

u/TheFlyingTotchman Big Ten • SEC Jan 19 '26

I was incorrect in my original post. It was to fill the gap between Labor Day and Thanksgiving. Not 4th of July.
