Who's got to work over Christmas?

[SimonR]

Sadly, in front of this computer is pretty much how I'll spending every day until Christmas eve afternoon, when, if I'm lucky the finance guys will go home and I can do the same.

I was wondering who else has got to work the festive period...? Of course I guess it means that if there are lots of us working then at least there will be a lot of posting on the fourms!

I'll be finishing about 1p.m chrimbo eve,then go back on the 2nd jan,got today off though,using up the last of my holiday entitlement:D

[Maria]

Yep, working Xmas Eve and New Year's Eve :(

Mainly my own fault - I'm too used to working in educational establishments where you automatically get the holiday period off, and by the time I realised I'd need to book the holiday, just about everyone else had got there first.

I was supposed to be on leave all this week, but almost predictably on the railway one thing led to another and here I am going in to work today and tomorrow to sort out an almighty great big mess :(

Thereafter, however, every remaining day in 2003 except New Years Eve (which I'll be working) is either a bank holiday or a day on which I'm entitled leave, so that *will* be that.

Anyone have to work Christmas Day? I suppose you could argue there's little to miss and the time off is best saved for the summer months :)

Well, I've just been told to go home so that's where I'm going. Actually it's not because MaestroMatt and I are off down the pub!

Have a great time everyone!

And a very nice pint it was too. Just to brag, I finished on the 18th and am not back until the 5th. Ah the joy of working in the public sector...

Merry Christmas everyone!
