Years back when I did care work the charity we worked told us it was policy not to pay double time on Christmas Day. They made the situation worse by only paying us half wages if the guys we supported weren't there, even if we used the time to clean, do paperwork, cook or even spent all day driving the fellas to their parent's houses!

The joys of the motor trade and a lack of remaining holiday entitlement means I'll be off on the 25th, 26th, 30th & 31st.

Other than that you'll find me chained to my desk

When I worked for MFI, it used to close for the week before Christmas then open on Boxing Day. There'd be brisk trade for the next three weeks and I'd work them without a day off mindful of the huge pay packet (double and triple time) with my name on it at the end of January.

A big thank you to anyone who is working, or even anyone who only gets the one day off. I used to work in a supermarket, so I appreciate my current luxury of over a week off.

I work in retail not full time thankfully so i'm not in until next Thursday.

[Rob500]

I can remember working 12 hour days over the holidays, for 2 weeks and 3 weekends with the only days off being xmas day and boxing day, hard work (worse as in my late teens at the time) but the over time pay was good (also did it for two weeks over easter and in the summer), but appreciate those that the work to keep the country running especially those in the police, medical, fire and military services

 

[Pat "5mph"]

Working over the holidays, off Christmas day, double shift 24th/26th.
Should be off new year's day this year, not really bothered, as I don't drink.
