It's Christmas Eve. Are You at Work?
I'm on the bus on my way to the office right now. The bus is empty as it appears the majority of Calgarians have today off.
At least I'm off at noon and have tomorrow off before working at my PT on Boxing Day.
Anyone else stuck working today?

For the first time in about a decade...I am not (and am pretty surprised about it, actually). My wife is working a half day, though.

Either you are at work, left a bunch of Christmas stuff to the last minute (today), or you honestly need a CalPuck intervention haha.

Yup 8-12 today. Didn't want to take a half day off. Might as well come into to work. i'll probably take 2 coffee breaks in 4 hours. Then I'll stick around downtown and finish up some last minute Xmas shopping at TD Square.
At least the bus is running a normal schedule. If they had changed to a Saturday or Sunday schedule I would not have come to work.

I'm here physically, but mentally I'm somewhere else. Pretty sure this will be a low productivity day for me.

Today is a half day, and as a result most people are not coming in. That makes today the best day of the year for me to do stuff that normally interrupts peoples work.
Right now I am re-imaging a dozen PCs, if Ghost decides to start working.

Yes and no.
It's a market day so yes I'm here and no because I was just over at Wal-Mart and Super Store looking for a stuffed toy.
I'll go for a run around noonish and then home.
Not a lot of traffic on the roads and the stores weren't too crowded . . . . athough it was only 8 a.m. when I was there!!!
Last year, 5 p.m. on Christmas Eve at Southcentre is not something I need to experience again in my lifetime.
