I worked as a nurse in a day surgery center and we usually closed the day after the holiday because it wasn’t cost effective to stay open if we didn’t have enough surgeons working. We had the option to use PTO or we could choose to take the day without pay. Some times I’d split the difference and take four hours of PTO.
