Employers especially love it when these non-movable holidays fall on a Friday, Saturday, Sunday or Monday.
Because nothing says 'I'm not motivated to work' like a holiday on Tuesday, Wednesday or Thursday. If it falls on a Tuesday, making people come in on Monday is like cutting yourself with a rusty Volkswagen and then rubbing Pontiac into the wound. Same for Thursday holidays, and then expecting people to come to work on Friday.
Wednesday used to be not too bad; people had trouble justifying slacking off two days in a row. But thanks to our burgeoning Slacker Culture, a Wednesday holiday is on it's way to being a whole week lost to 'I deserve the whole week off with pay.
Ask any employer and you'll hear every single atheist, money-grubbing one tell you that EVERY SINGLE gotterdamnrung holiday should be on a Monday, even gotterdamnrung Christmas, Thanksgiving, New Years Day, and yes, even the 4th of July.
Thank you.

I take the whole week off regardless because I love this country that much.
You're so full of shit it's a wonder I can't smell you from here.
