Inauguration day a holiday for GovPlanet?

[155mm]

I have been trying to get ahold of GovPlanet to finalize a purchase from Wed and the phone says they are closed? What? They are supposed to be open til 5pm Pacific.

So am I missing something here? Did I work on a holiday and didnt know it?

Yes, Inauguration day is a national holiday, this means that federal workers get a paid day off, some employers observe and some don't, just like MLK birthday

Sure as **** wasn't for me or my building, or my base. We were at full capacity today.

GL was open for business, I dropped by to pick up a couple of triwalls. Then went back to work to watch the swearing in ceremony live. The rest of the day was work as usual; except that we have a NEW President that I have been waiting 8 years for.

It wasn't a government paid holiday, Certain Agencies were "at minimal manning" almost exclusively in the DC area, The rest of us were told TOUGH NUTS

I sure would have been nice to have know that they were going to be closed on Friday, now I have to take off work on Monday so I can finallize a purchase from GovPlanet. What a waste.

You have to take off a day to finalize a purchase? Ive bought a bunch of stuff from GP usually doesnt take more than a few minutes.

You can send a pdf of your tax form anytime. They will confirm it when you call.

I just did this last Thursday(next day after auction). Took one call and 2 minutes tops.

No phones where you work?
