As I have researched so far, full time employees get paid holidays even if they don't work ON the holiday, as long as you work all the scheduled hours of the week. Well, I was scheduled to work ON Thanksgiving, but my hours were claimed.
If Thanksgiving was part of my scheduled week am I still going to get my straight pay for the holiday? I intend to work every day I was scheduled, beside the hours that were claimed.
yea you will be fine. you are still working yours adjusted full schedule for the week. enjoy the day off. at my store - i asked to only work 32 hrs and then add in the holiday for my 40. but nOooooo - the store manager decided to have every fricken' deli employee there at 9 am until 5 pm. THATS LIKE 1000 OF US. I get that there will be some thanksgiving dinners and some party trays to make. But we'll have that crap done by noontime. Then we will be standing around shooting the crap. I know they will ask some of us to leave early. I'm very tempted to ride it out and collect my $21 / hr OT pay

Employees don't necessarily get paid for the holiday just because they are full time. They get paid holiday pay if they were around before the newer set of contracts that took those benefits away for newer employees.
