I have work on dec 26, the next day after Xmas.
While everyone is still dizzy from the holiday, I'll be off to work first thing in the morning. But that's part of the job.
I work in the pharmacy to I had to pick a holiday to work and choose Christmas, but I only work 4 hours. Afterwards we are leaving that evening and going to New York to be with are family for New Years
if you go shopping the day before or after christmas, hug a retail worker - a lot of us don't ever get to spend christmas with our loved ones so that others can shop for theirs. i'm lucky; my family lives less than two hours away and i can drive there to spend the day, but a lot of people don't get to.
My hours on Eve are supposed to be 9am-7pm but my practice manager said she might try to push the bosses for a 9am-4 or 5pm day instead.
I'm working Xmas Day but only for 3 hours so I guess that's not too bad.
