Other way around. Places default to open, then if people don't come, they stay closed next year as acost saving measure.
That’s how it works already, Chinese culture doesn’t care about Christmas, they make great money being open for their culture and others that don’t celebrate Christmas and want a normal day.
I love having Chinese coworkers because they will work extra shifts during Thanksgiving and Christmas. But it's my responsibility to work extra shifts for Chinese new year.
I wonder which establishments have experienced this.
When I was working for a video rental place on Thanksgiving, people would always say "I can't believe you have to work today!" While renting movies. I wanted to yell at them "if you didn't come in, I wouldn't have to!"
