    In other words, you just post new threads whenever a thought pops into your head? No continuity of discussion.

    It’s forum etiquette. Responding to an existing thread about a topic is the polite thing to do. Aggregation of discussion and knowledge in one place.

    And I pour one out for my departed CF homies.

    What is truly sad is that a federal holiday originating in Texas is not recognized by Texas government (in practice) as a full federal holiday.

    Texas state agencies remain open and consider it a "skeleton crew" holiday.

    Will not be surprised if there is an attempt to roll it back before the next presidential election.

    Happy Juneteenth all, good thread DD and good search bump lol.

    It's refreshing to see people have the courage to care about others regardless of creed, color etc. God bless

    Wow I going to ask if it was.
    Here in NY it's divided.
    In my union it's a floater.
    Those who work under me in a different union it's a full holiday. It got added this year for them.
    Makes for a nice slow day.

    The current admin did not even acknowledge it and even made a statement that there are too many federal holidays without naming the Holiday so yea.......it wont be around much longer.

    How a person of color can stand by this admin is beyond me
