A free Holy day for them, while everyone else has to "pay" for theirs by using up a personal day, or vacation pay. Or in some cases, they have to take a day off without getting paid at all. While Christians get the day off with pay, because it is customarily a paid holiday on a federal level.

This is total BS based on what I have experienced. The Jews with whom I worked were given paid religious holidays in addition to our normal holidays.
