It is a state holiday in Georgia (it bettah be!!), but then again so is confederate memorial day.
My job was also closed.
BTW, a state holiday simply means that state government offices are closes. Local municipalities still have jurisdiction on whether or not it will be a holiday and school boards have the final say so in whether or not a school is closed. Bank and post office closure is because of the federal holiday. You know the banks get every holiday! LOL
