While it’s a nice gesture for retailers to give their employees a day off on holidays, some employees prefer to work because they get paid a premium.
That is said to be the case with Trader Joe’s, a company that reportedly pays employees an extra $10 an hour if they work on Sunday or a holiday like Memorial Day.
So if you’re Trader Joe’s bound on Memorial Day, you can breathe a sigh of relief.
