[Yankydoodledandy]

WW3 here....she says its tomorrow. Sure its today!!!!

It is today!

Yes it's today always the 4th Thursday in November!

LOL is Thanks Giving maybe the same as black Friday for her??

Yep definitely today

It is today, always a Thursday. Dh got really irritated last week by my doubting that last Friday wasn't Black Friday, the day after Thanksgiving. Which is today!

It’s today - she’s an idiot.

Thanksgiving = Thursday
Leading to
Black Friday, when the US traditionally had a shopping splurge on a weekend they’re all on holiday.

I got mixed up and thought it was last week because all the black fridays deals online started a week early!

It's today but most US folks also take tom off.

Def today, my favourite work days of the year today and tomorrow as there is total peace from my US colleagues

It’s today. We’ve got the oil in the turkey fryer just starting warming up already!

Yes, it is today. It is always the last Thursday in November.

Does nobody in the office have access to Google?!

Fairly easy to settle the argument via Google search surely ?

Google it. Its on the calendar

😂

Just MN evidently.

Weird that you can start a thread but not find the answer in 0.1 seconds on Google 😀

It's today in the USA, but in Canada it was last month. A lot of colleagues also off tomorrow.

How does this even need a thread? If you can find mumsnet you can find Google. Takes less than a second to find a certain answer, how can it possibly be dragging on long enough for WW3

US today.
Canada October.

Don't think Thanksgiving is tomorrow anywhere.

Thanksgiving is always a Thursday - it’s like Easter is always a Sunday. The date changes but the day always remains the same.

It was set as the 4th Thursday in 1942 apparently (previously it was apparently moved but always to a Thursday).

It's definitely today, my turkey is in the oven and the potatoes are peeled and ready to roast!

Yes, no 5pm meeting today!

As Black Friday sales begin the day after US Thanksgiving, Thanksgiving is on a Thursday. That's why our BF sales are so shit, as we don't have thanksgiving we don't have a day after thanksgiving, so we don't have a BF.

Same with people asking questions on my local facebook page and waiting for random strangers to reply,sometimes with the wrong answer. Google could have given them the correct answer much earlier.

Has anyone in your place of work heard of Google?
