Are you working over Christmas?

[Haggisman]

Enjoy!

Thanks! It's not exactly going to be "off", since I'll have the kids while the other half is at work, but will be nice to spend some quality time with them (and rope them into helping me with all the jobs around the house )

As much as getting regular outside time helped my SAD, I really don't miss being a postie at this time of year, especially since parcel quantities went through the roof at the start of the covid pandemic.

Very optimistic getting kids to help with anything lol

 

[something daft already!!]

Off since last Friday and not back until the 2nd.

 

[Whitewater]

Just off the weekends and bank holidays.

No, never have, probably never will. Last day tomorrow until January.

Nope, working until Christmas Eve (read: dossing at home), then back on the 2nd.

 

[Bluecube]

Self employed here so wrapping up on Friday and back on the 6th January. Will likely do a few work bits and bobs over the fortnight but nothing major at all. I’m needing this break!

 

[ElliorR]

Monday and Friday at work next week but apart from those 2 days I'm back in on the 6th.

Self employed so cant afford too much time off, finish Xmas eve then back at it on the 27th.

 

[Worthy]

Nope, finish tomorrow dinner time and then back in the new year. Not a moment too soon, I’m about to keel over from burnout.

 

[sja360]

Usually work on ships, sadly away this year joined 18th dec and get away 15th of january. Only saving grace is there is copious amounts of food planned for meals.

I must also point out i have to do nightshift, 6pm to 6am.

Working up to and including Christmas eve then off for 3 days which is just normal work rota.
Not sure why people still get all worked up over Christmas and take loads of time off around this specific time.

Family and friends off, you get loads of bang for buck when taking annual leave - most people are happy and you get presents and eat loads of nice food. Whats not to like?
