    Some ready, willing to work today By Washington Post
    There is no federal law that says an employee must be given Christmas off, or that says those who work Christmas must be paid overtime. About 98 percent of all U.S. companies recognize Christmas as an official holiday, but since both Christmas and New Year's Day fall on a Saturday this year, many people will get no paid time off.
