Who is working Christmas Day?

[bunyip]

apart FROM ME.....
Wife is working, Daughter is a nurse and rostered on, other Daughter final year med school and will be in a hospital somewhere, I shall have to console myself with the fact that I get paid 2.5 times the normal rate which ultimately means the Government will reap the reward.
We are all off on the 26th and will have our day then.
Will have TBN on at work as I don't plan on working too hard.

I am fortunate that I have never had to do that. Furthermore, because I believe there should be days which people should be free to spend with their families I always have planned not to need anything from places which do remain open... That includes those of you in essential services; hospitals, emergency services, LEOs... I don't even speed on Christmas Day.

I do appreciate the efforts of the folk who do work that day,, though.

Yep I’ll be on Christmas Eve and Day....no extra pay. I’m happy to do it.

Family did Christmas Eve and Day Thursday and Friday. So we are done

Not me! I've been on zero overtime for years. Engineering department budget won't allow it.

Don't remember ever having to work Christmas Day! Blessed that way job wise as the 24th Eve is our formal family dinner and gift gifting, and then we all enjoy a good Norwegian breakfast in the morning and then play with our toys on a sleepy afternoon!

Thank you to all that serve on Christmas and other holidays! :drink:

I am retired so no longer work for someone else (just for myself now). But, for 38 years I worked in a Hospital and worked many Holidays including Christmas, Thanksgiving, New Years, 4th of July and others. It's kinda expected in a businesses that operate 24/7 365 days a year.

To the many people in various fields of employ that do have to work on Holidays including all of our Military Service members I also say thank you for your service and wish all a very Merry Christmas and happy holiday season.

What is the 100k limit? What happened to her?

If I’m needed I go. Anywhere, anytime. There is always something to work on.
