Is anyone else having to work Christmas eve?
I have to. 3pm - 11pm. No way to get out of it either. They are also talking about making new year's eve and new year's day mandatory.

:(

5. We're supposed to close at 3.
But I'm closing the office at 2:58, just to show those corporate bastards in New York.

8. Working 7-4 Christmas Eve, and 8-5 Christmas Day.
So yep. But hey, if they want to pay me over 30 dollars an hour to sit and twiddle my thumbs Christmas Day, that's fine with me.
