Anyone else working today?
Merry Christmas to me.. Chicago to Louisville to Miami today... Got to love aviation....
At least I saw my family via face time today... |
I'm jewish so in my 'operational' past (I'm in sales now) I used to always volunteer to be on call for EVERYTHING for christmas as long as I got 3 days for new years off and no hard time regarding time off for the High Holy Days (usually in September).
Now, I would still do the same but since I'm no longer participating in an on call situation and we have a mandatory PTO policy I don't have to. |
does slaving away cooking count? i'm the oyster shucker today.
|
Yes, but got to sneak home for a bit this morning. I work most holidays, but don't mind. I'm off Tues-Thurs next week & get to hang out with my boy on Coruscant.
|
yep. keeping SoCal arrivals safe.
|
Worked more Christmas days than I care to remember. None since I retired at age 52 in 2003.
|
I worked yesterday 3 shows and this morning once; about 15.5K people through the door in 2 days! Oh, and double time pay. Fine with me!!SmileWavy
|
Not today, luckily. I did work yesterday. A bunch of my coworkers are working today though. I worked thanksgiving day.
|
I started at 7:30 Sat morning and got home about 2am this morning, then back from 6:30 to 10 am today. But the rest of the day should be mine. Bunch of surgery, appys, gunshots, great Christmas Eve fun.
|
First Christmas in years that I have been home. Be safe!
|
Yep, worked yesterday and today.
|
Not today.... We have in the past though, get a call that a storm has knocked something in a driveway, and we go to clear it...
We just got back from Phoenix retrieving the newest work truck, some rough weather made it a stressful trip home, doubt we work tomorrow either.... |
The one upside to working is the relatives all came weeks ago, and we don't have to travel out of state, so now that the kids are in bed, my wife and I can have a quiet night.
|
I've had to work many, many holidays and have been away from home for many while in the military and as a civilian, so I really appreciate being with family and friends during the holidays!!
|
You betchya..... Yesterday, today, and tomorrow......second shift (0800 to 1600) My job is open 24 hours per day, 365 days a year. I usually work Holidays so coworkers with kids can be home.
|
Yeah, I know the feeling. I havent had a Christmas off in over 15 years.. !
But working is one thing, but not being able to go home for a few days over the holidays is even worse! |
I got up at around 4 this afternoon.
|
I've lost track of the number of years I've been stuck at one job or another on Christmas, Easter, whatever. Thankfully the current job doesn't (and likely won't ever) require it. My side work/projects on the other hand...
