Am I allowed to take a holiday off if I need to move?

My manager says I cannot have the day off because it’s a holiday but I need that day off to move. He says because it’s not fair to everyone else but everyone else says they don’t care. Is there anything I can do to get the day off?

I'm not certain what your job is is and who your employer is.  If this is a private company, versus a state agency, then I'm afraid that your only recourse is to either work or find another job.  Even if you were with a public employer you may not have too many more rights.

Maybe someone can switch days with you???

Best of luck.
