  1. So these places are making employees work instead of spending time with their families on Thanksgiving? I understand that some people do not have family or friends to spend this day with, but most do.

  2. Cool, let’s force employees to work on a day that’s destined to be slow, so the tipped workers won’t even make good money like they might on other holidays.
