So how do we express how much it means to us that this holiday comes so soon? We take a day off, of course. That's right, Solarbotics will be closed on Monday, October 13th, 2014 so that we can celebrate our gratitude for having an early Thanksgiving.
That's right. This Thanksgiving, we're thankful for Thanksgiving. We're hoping this will cause a continuous feedback loop of statutory holidays, but we'll let you know how it goes.
