Everything is also still open for Easter. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-to-work-on-good-friday/page/2#post-2502717 Tue, 22 Mar 2016 08:35:35 +0000 Ree723 2502717@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Good Friday and Easter Monday are public holidays here so everything is closed and it's a four day weekend for all! The school term always ends on the Thursday before Easter as well so DD will have the next two weeks off as well for term break. Super excited about our four day weekend! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-to-work-on-good-friday/page/2#post-2502598 Tue, 22 Mar 2016 06:53:20 +0000 tinyperson 2502598@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope not working, it's a stat holiday in Canada (other than Quebec, I think). DH gets Easter Monday off as well, because he's government. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-to-work-on-good-friday/page/2#post-2502573 Tue, 22 Mar 2016 05:31:44 +0000 ValentineMommy 2502573@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have off on Fridays because of my schedule, but if I had to work fridays, I'd be at work.

But day care is also closed. So I'll be trying to get two kids out of the house and entertained since my husband works from home on Fridays and he won't be able to get much done if we're around. And my baby has his 4 month shots in the afternoon. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-to-work-on-good-friday#post-2501757 Mon, 21 Mar 2016 12:04:03 +0000 Mrs. Lemon-Lime 2501757@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have to work, but imagine many of customers will close early.
