If the workers are working on a holiday, they should be paid more. The business can afford that by charging more on those days. Makes sense to me. (Strictly in the scenario where the business is compensating their workers fairly from the profits. If they're just making profit hand over fist they can get stuffed)

I hate credit card surcharges though. Nobody uses cash.

I am fully on board with the +15% on holidays, it's a fair request given that a hospitality venues employees are usually around 30-40% of the revenue.
