Quote from: GKitson on April 03, 2015, 10:00:41 AMMind's Eye Graphics is located in NE Indiana in what many people refer to a a 'very' religious area where faiths of all type rather peacefully co-exist.Many smaller business entities still maintain the tradition of 'honoring' Good Friday by either being closed or closing from 12-3 in remembrance of the time Christ was being crucified. Many larger industrial organizations have established Good Friday as part of their paid Holiday scheme so most of our customers have essentially a 3 day weekend. Retail and eating establishments are open & taking advantage of others not having to work for the day.MEG is open regular business hours but generally 1/2 of our staff has elected to take Good Friday off as PTO and the phone seldom rings.By 3 PM production will be silent and we generally have 1 or 2 staffers who stick around to take the odd phone call, service will call customers and let UPS load up at 4:30. Our industrial park location has a normal amount cars in 3 of the 5 companies located here.Peaceful day that I get to clean out my inbox and I was just curious as to other TSB members business practices regarding Good Friday.Enjoy the weekend and MAKE time for your family, the screens will still be there on Monday!~KitsonNormal work day for us. We probably will be a little slower on sales but we are still full day and we are ramping up for our open house next week where basically my people will be paid to hang out and talk to customers/friends of the shop all day. We give away shirts and food to anyone coming by.
