Of course I wouldn't post this unless I were working myself. 5PM-1AM at the Maryland bowling alley where I'm employed.

Could have been worse. Could have been the morning shift.

 

[SonicMegaDrive]

Yes, Christmas Night.

Humbug.

 

[Mairu]

Yes! Probably from 1:30 pm to 11 pm or whenever we get out after closing (Blockbuster!)

I don't celebrate Christmas, so hooray for overtime! Hooray for being Jewish! Hooray for retail!

I also worked yesterday. Hooray for a million people doing last minute Christmas shopping!

 

[Tommie Hu$tle]

Me. Freedom© doesn't take a day off.

 

[Socreges]

Me. Freedom© doesn't take a day off.

:lol

I'm sorry, that's a shame.

Just got home from Walgreens. Recorded message on the intercom periodically plays: "In a perfect world, you'd have your Christmas preparations done way in advance, but now it's Christmas day and you're at Walgreens. Aren't you glad we're here?"

 

[Suerte]

More important, who's getting the highest wage per hour for working Christmas day?

 

[DCX]

I am...i work at a Nursing Home, i HAVE to work...a thankless job with built in rewards none of which is recognition or pay It's sad when a Wal-Mart stock boy could make more than i do

[Willco]

I am going to track you down at your work place, Mandark!

If I were to take a stab at it I would say probably me.

Same here... except for the Jewish part. Worked the past three days including a 13-hour shift on the 23rd. Blockbuster worker drones represent.

Can't wait to do exchange/return credits for non-member accounts...

 

[keeblerdrow]

Just got home from a 9 hour shift. Have another one starting at 10pm tonight.

 

[Dkong]

I'll be flipping burgers at McDonald's tomorrow.

 

[Kintaro]

I work today, and a big fuck you to those who aren't!

...not really, just bummed. Working 8am-4pm at the Casino. Why the fuck do people come to a fucking Casino on Xmas? Come on people, seriously. Put a little faith back in humanity, STOP THE ADDICTION FOR ONE DAY! I like money and all, but man it's depressing to see Gamblers with nowhere to go spend thousands on stupid ass games...and not tip.

Merry Fucking Xmas ^^

 

[yodathesoda]

Leaving for work now at 6am gonna return home at approx 7pm :|

 

[Triumph]

I am currently browsing GAF at work.

 

[pestul]

I've worked the holidays the past 4yrs... this year I'm off from Dec 21st - Jan 3rd. >

 

[Joeholley]

Aye, both 'eve and X-mas itself.

 

[UtadaBarkley]

I worked yesterday, and once again I'm at work now... From 9am to 9pm. I just downloaded Splinter Cell Pandora Tomorrow onto my Motorola V505. Should melt a few hours away.

 

[kiryogi]

I called off Xmas luckily. Worked half of eve (would have been all but I requested half since I needed to deliver some gifts) No real holiday breaks here :/

 

[Iceman]

Going to work in 45 minutes for about 4 hours. Yay!!

But afterwards, Christmas dinner with CHRISTIANS that actually care about today. WOOHOO!

and then The Life Aquatic with my non-christian friends.

It's going to be a good day.

The worst has been having to set up & deal with all this new no late fees shit at this time. They could have picked a better time other than the busiest week of the year to decide to start that shit :/
