In Australia, if certain public holidays fall on a weekend, they must give the next day in lieu of this. Because we also have boxing day, which is a public holiday on the 26th on the monday, the public holiday in lieu of christmas is tuesday.
The best part about it is that all you need to do is then take the wednesday, thursday and friday as annual leave to get like 10 days off in a row, because with new years falling on a sunday, they've also given monday as the public holiday in lieu.

Not actually true, fyi. Because Christmas falls on a sunday, the monday afterwards is a national holiday. Some businesses may chose not to recognize it, but its still recognized by the gov't. I get it off
lucky my company is very generous and gave us extra day off for both.

Same here in Ireland. My company, however, just give us those three days off outside our regular holiday allowance.

He is a coward who has to bring two friends as backup to jump people hunting.
Although, we do get time off when bank holidays fall on weekends as mentioned above, and while i'm technically working in between Christmas and New Year my boss said to me "Spend time with the family, eat chocolate and if I need you, a response the same day would be appreciated."
@Synbios Compare it with (the blue states on) a map of the 2016 US election results. I guess they're trying to say the other states aren't united/part of the country any more (because they voted Trump).
