If I was at work I'd be doing next to nothing, but i'd still rather not be there. Wish I had a job I liked

This is why it's great. Quiet roads, no-one to make sure you are "busy" in front of, just kick back, watch some movies/videos, listen to some music, do an incredibly short day, get paid for it without losing a "real" day's holiday.

finish on Xmas eve morning & will be back in Boxing day night, New years eve off back in next night, so yippie 3 days off

I'm working Christmas Eve and New Year's Eve again this year unfortunately.

same. I have Xmas day and New Years day off (first time in 2 years whooo!)

 

[R.O.S.S.I]

Im off Xmas Day, Boxing Day, and New Years Day. Apparantly it's going to get really quite over the next week or so. Personally I'd rather be in work on Xmas Day, especially if there was some nice sort of overtime, but I think we just close completely (this is for NHS IT btw). I'm sure there must be some medical centres etc open on Xmas Day, can't quite understand why we aren't required in.

I won't be in the office on the bank holidays but I have e-mails on my phone to keep me busy

I've been really lucky with my rota, was meant to be on call boxing day, but because it's 3rd on I don't have to be there! Have to work Christmas Eve and am on call NYE. At least I'll have the weekend after Christmas too.

I have to work on 22nd but then I'm off for 2 weeks.

Bit gutted that we have to go in for that 1 piddling day. Friday finish would have been epic
