Bank holidays would be really awkward. You start wort at 23 and the next day is off so you would just have to work that one hour.

Office workers could probably move hours around. It would get complicated for shift workers though. Paying overtime for work on holidays?

What would happen is that unofficially they determine a logical working day to be between 12:00 and 00:00 in US/Central since that maps to 6am to 6pm. In essence, we'd still have timezones but they would not have formal definitions.

My experience is that you start work and the next day is off so you just lock the doors and keep working, but maybe there are financial institutions without backlogs idunno.
