[[FnG]magnolia]

[f666]

Off but on call for emergencies

 

[tom_nieto]

Working Boxing Day this year. Worked 8 hours of Christmas Day last year (and the preceding weekend). Not too terrible I guess!

 

[bennyx_o]

Finished up on Friday until 6th January. Needed the break and probably the longest I've ever had off over Christmas

 

[Tuppy_Glossop]

Finish 20th Dec, back on 13th January. Hell yeah.

Same as me. We are off on the lash at midday on Friday, too.

 

[Joeyuk]

Only off 25th and 26th next week but then have a weeks holiday from the 30th.

 

[OspreyO]

Haven't worked Xmas for years. Advantage of working in IT. Work goes quiet start of Dec. Usually take as much leave as I can, as I'm usually fed up of work, and theres a load of family stuff going on.

 

[Noxia]

12th -> 6th

 

[hurfdurf]

Nothing booked in past the 22nd. Then I’ve got NNYE at Ministry of Sound and a NYE event the next night both booked in London.

 

[moon man]

Just doing 1.5 days over the 2 weeks but my contract was due to expire but has again been extended so i want to keep some holls in this financial year

 

[D.P.]

25th is holiday, i'll take 24th off. 1st is also a holiday but I will be on call. Otherwise i'll be working the rest, although if the weather and snow is great i could take a day skiing.

 

[Bear]

Finish on the 24th and back on the 13th. Cant complain as Ive just started a new contract and had 6 months off this year

 

[Yaayuh!]

Off from 24th, back on 6th

I never work Christmas.

 

[mushtafa]

I usually have xmas and new year off, but first year with my own business so will probably only be able to afford 2 days off

 

[ODuffer]

Off but on call for emergencies

I hope you're being paid a fortune. Finish on the 20th back in on the 2nd (all university closure days, so no leave used).
I could have booked two days annual leave for the 2nd and 3rd, however I'd rather use leave when the weather is a bit nicer.

Unfortunately not, no extra pay. Part of the job and only really if things go really wrong. But helps nearly half my team don't do Xmas, as they are in.

 

[adam cool dude]

I am off for 7 days this year and also have new years off too. First time in 10 years. Next year I have two weeks off already booked.

It feels weird working a job where holidays during December are not banned!

 

[BigBoy]

I break up Friday back in 30&31 then off until the 6th, working the two days just to clear some backlog. Joys of project work it can all go on hold until we are all back working again.

 

[Rotty]

27,30 and 31 normal shifts

on call from Monday 30th till Monday after so all NYE and NY day etc

Missus is working all Xmas eve and day getting back boxing day morning
