the rest of the world doesn't really understand the thanksgiving thing in the USA. I'm a Canadian, and I don't get it, but it's real in the USA and it's not a one day thing, it fucks up a week or so with many institutions, esp government ones and banks. I had a wire transfer that normally takes 2 days or less take a week over that time period.
not much happens on the Wednesday before thanksgiving, they all take off early. Thursday is the holiday.
the Friday they all take off work so they can go shopping (black Friday)
then it's the weekend.
Monday they are so backed up with work that nothing gets done till the next tues or Wednesday....
it doesn't make sense to anyone except Americans.....
