Dates were not provided as many of these holidays do not fall on the same day of the month or even same month every year. Also, any Saturdays or Sundays that do not have a holiday fall on them are automatically treated as a holiday. Also, anytime from 5pm-7am is also treated as a holiday. This prevents us from having to work over time.
