You forgot one choice on your poll........some of us are working the entire holiday weekend. My workweek is Sunday through Thursday , so I work on Monday (my birthday too) and on Tuesday, the 4th. But I've done that for years, even working Easter, etc, so it is no big deal.
I normally work minor holidays (of which I count July 4 as one) because I really only need off for the big ones like Thanksgiving, Christmas and Easter.
However, this year I've opted to use PTO for both July 3 and July 4, even though only July 4 is an approved holiday for my company. So this year, I'll enjoy my 4-day weekend.
July 4 itself is the only day that we are closed. Huge numbers of people are taking the 3rd as a vacation day, so we are operating with a skeleton crew. Many people are also taking Friday.
I took several extra days off around Memorial Day, so I am working the third to that others may take the day off. We tend to swap holidays like that to cover for one another.
