Is today your Monday?

Like Bejota, I didn't get yesterday off for the MLK Holiday. However, nearly a third of U.S. companies give employees a holiday on Martin Luther King Jr.'s birthday.

This number seems low to me - mostly because my last two employers did give me MLK off... And I thought I was an East Coast thing, but clearly more than 1/3 of companies are HQed on the East Coast so I'm not sure what's up w/ how HR determines if we get the day off.
