obviously (to me at least). Everyone gets the same pay--which is wonderful! Here it depends on where you work, and what you do. The employer or company pays, not the govt. Teachers, postal workers, bank employees, govt. employees, city/state employess are primarily the people that would get all of those holidays off with pay.

I really appreciate your openess and willingness to share all of this with me. I can't thank you enough! I've wanted to learn more about other countries and what they offer to their citizens, seeing how our govt. seems determined to take more and more away here.

It's a great learning opportunity for me. It's also so nice to know everywhere isn't like here. Thank you!
