I'm also in today and tommorow. Then off from the 24th thru the 4th.

Some people had also asked why I hadn't booked these two days off. I just knew that it was going to be quiet at work- why waste vacation time on the easy low stress days? Save the vacation time for when I actually need a break from work.

Got to work about an hour late thanks to Vancouver basically being snowed in. Work tomorrow too, then get to head home to Calgary on Wednesday morning.

Same here. Just to show him, I booked off last Thursday and I ain't coming back until after New Years ... either the 5th or 6th.

Not only am I working, but I'm out of town and might get stuck here through Christmas. Just the way things worked out this year, usually I'm off for almost 2 weeks.

I only have today and Xmas day off - which seems bad but I'm just happy do have Xmas day off to spend with the family. Last year I worked it and it kinda sucked. My family is town so I don't mind working, so that people at work who need to go elsewhere can do so. Would love to have more time off this week but it is what it is.
