Working Christmas?

[rayjay]

Well, through a twist of fate I will be working Christmas this year. Rather than stick it to someone I penciled myself in for the A Line (2300-0700). Anyone else working? Maybe we can comiserate :shake:

11 PM to 7 AM doesn't seem too bad. :( Maybe you will catch a glimpse of :santaw: and his reindeer making his rounds. And, you will be home in time to see Brittany opening her gifts. :up:

Pulling those 24 hour Christmas shifts is a different story --- and I have had my fair share of those over the past 35 years. Of course, things get really slow on Christmas day. :D

Thanks Mary, we've been tracking Santa every Christmas Eve since Brittany was old enough to appreciate it.

Except for domestics its usually pretty quiet around here on A Line Christmas Eve. I suppose I could play the Grinch and head hunt a DWI as there is a statewide push on during the holidays. Most likely I'll just hide in my office :D... 32 years on, 25+ in supervision, and I'm working Christmas? They can kiss my petute if they think I'm humping it.

I traded out with another agent to get Christmas off, but I have to work New Years. Luckily we don't go after drunks and the coyotes take the holidays off.

I am working tomorrow and Monday, we had a very good sales day today, and over all December has been a very good month.

[Raudermaster]

My work kicks ass and is allowing us to work Saturday and Sunday (had to work one day anyway due to end of quarter) and we get double time and a half, and they're paying us Monday anyway.

[Aren Jay]

Stock market is closed so no work for me.

[Breadfan]

I will be on 24/7 call on the 24th/25th so my fingers will be crossed.

[Local Boy]

I'll be here, on Christmas day, and new years day...Because I have to work, also...

ALOHA

[Blackened300a]

I would have been off from Friday to Wednesday but I got stuck working today. Time and a half for 8 hours and I only worked 4 so it was a score.

[quahog]

working police/fire/rescue dispatch from 2300hrs to 0700 on xmas.

[Motorhead350]

If they needed me to I would. It's just another day to me.

[Dragcity]

My Dad worked 364 days a year. Always took off Christams Eve. 2300 to 0800 shift at the Ford plant.

Christmas eve is a big day for us.

Sorry to all you who have to work (if you don't want to).

Ray, I have designated my lovely Laurie to drive me and my Family home from my Mom's. My gift to her.... getting to drive my Marauder with a fresh coat of wax for Christmas.....

Merry Christmas everyone. Have a safe and happy. Love and peace to you all.
