How many of you having to work Christmas eve/Christmas day?

Run a RO water plant for the local power plant here, on midnights 6 - 6. Good thing is I will be home in the morning to wake everyone up and enjoy the day.

Working another mid shift tonight like any other day. 2045-0645 Tuesday night-Saturday morning. But at least I'll get to take leave starting on Saturday.

Edit: I'm also not deployed, so there's that.

Since I am retired that just means that I have been cleaning the house, doing laundry, working on one of the cars, and cooking all day.

And I though that retirement meant that I could take it easy and watch TV or go out on a nice drive in my Cobra.

Off tonight, on call starting 6:30p Christmas night, but I don't anticipate any actual work coming up, but that's part of what sucks about being on call, you never know.

I'm in China.
Worked Christmas eve, got drunk in the evening and now it's the day after and it's lunch time. About to go back to work.
Working new years as well. It's good money atleast. But damn it's rough.
Last week wednesday a new bar opened, have to go there. Thursday was the most horrible day of my life, saturday = bar, tuesday christmas eve = bar, Saturday = bar and then new years = bar..... Busy weeks
