Re: Working on Christmas eve?

I'm not working, but that isn't surprising because we have off the whole week between Christmas and New Years, too. The cool thing is that my husband has off, because he works retail and he would generally have to work...but his days off are Friday and Saturday so it works perfectly for us. Yay!

I am a SAHM but DH will be working half day. Then the boss is taking the workers (all 4 of them) out to lunch.

Re: Working on Christmas eve?

When I worked in an office I think I had to work but got out early.

I also used to waitress. My brother and I worked at the same place it was fun but that was also when I was single.

Not to mention we will come in and work until 12, and then have lunch in the office together! Aint that some crap!

Ohh... and the icing on the cake, all the companies we deal with are closed!!!

Because the holiday is on Sat we get Friday off.

The ILs are supposed to fly in tomorrow (weather permitting) so I'm off from the 21st till the 3rd.
Most agencies are closed the week between holidays so I see no point in coming in

Re: Working on Christmas eve?

My office is closed Christmas Eve.

My old office I had to work half day & it was horrible because my family hosts Christmas Eve. After I worked one year I took off every year after that because its just too much.
