you got eid off in the US ?
absolutely.. i got a full 3 days off, i was allowed to leave early during ramadan.. got all my holidays off no questions asked.. but then again, i worked for a family company ;p (but holidays also applied for school,etc)
even still.. this is definitely the norm in the u.s... my other family members worked for non-muslim companies and never had any issues with holidays, or leaving early during ramadan (providing they would fast).
