Florida Gov. Ron Desantis has announce that state employees will get three extra days off for the holidays. In addition to Christmas Day and New Years Day—state offices will also be closed on December 23, December 24, and December 31.

I cannot wrap my head around anyone that would begrudge people having 3 extra days off at this time of year. Good grief! It’s the Christmas season. If there is one thing families need these days is more time together.
Off 5 days, work 2, off 2, work 1, off 2, work 2 , off 2.
This is from 21 Dec till 5 Jan. Not bad
@OPS….you know it’s an OPS position and all that doesn’t come with it when you take the job.
What people dont realize is that the SOF employees that are non career services OPS employees do not get paid for these days off which impacts there paycheck greatly.
How great for our State employees! Enjoy!
How about the Florida State Park annual pass discount . Retired from the State of Florida , extra holidays do me no good now .
