I always loved to work Christmas. It was an "In House" vacation.

Of course, that contrasted with my field engineering days where I'd drive out to the wife's mom's house on the 24th, stay over night and end up driving back on the 25th, so I could work on the 26th. 7-12's was short hours...We had 100+ hour weeks. It felt really really weird when we moved to the next project , and were on 5-8's. "What do you mean it's time to go home? It's only 3:30!"
