I am not sure of the year this happened, the term Kelly Day is named after a Chicago Mayor who learned the city Firefighters worked 24 hours on duty with 24 hours off duty all year around with no weekends or consecutive days off.

Mayor Kelly decided that due to the work schedule the firefighters should get a shift off, to give them a three day break, known as a Kelly Day.

Why do firemen call their days off Kelly days?

One "legend" is that there once was a firefighter who always took off (sick?) a particular day. Perhaps this was the Monday after he was paid for the month. Or It could have been based upon some other regular, predictable, event. The legend then goes on to suggest that this person's name WAS "Kelly". From that, the term was applied to a day off taken. "I'm taking a day off like Kelly." became "I am taking a Kelly day."
