Is anyone at work today? What's everyone's work schedules this week, what do you get off?

We work today, then are half day/half staff tomorrow. The other girl in the office is taking tomorrow's half day, so I'm off. Then we're closed Christmas and the day after.

Re: Christmas Work Schedules.

    There is almost no one here.

  • I'm at work today, along with half our department.

    We're closed tomorrow and Christmas Day, and then I'm taking vacation days Thursday and Friday. 

    Can. Not. WAIT to get out of here. I am so unfocused. All I'm doing is figuring out super last-minute gifts.

    I need to get a gift card for my dad and stepmom to somewhere to eat out, just have to decide where. 
    I need to get my grandmother something (she wants a bird feeder, and our spending limit is $50, and I have no idea where to find one other than online, which I can't even do because shipping will take too long! 
    And I need to figure out a gift for the Santa grab bag everyone does at my dad's on Christmas day. Last year was totally random, some boozey, some funny, some useful, so I could go anywhere with it. Spending limit is $25. 

    Anyone have any ideas?!

  • My office is only closed on Christmas Day and New Years Day.  Boo.  I'm hoping my boss lets us go at least a little early tomorrow. It's dead.

  • Regular schedule today. They are supposedly letting us leave at noon tomorrow and we are closed Wednesday. The office is empty today though so it's hard to get motivated. That and the fact that I woke up feeling crummy. Hopefully I can kick this bug by tomorrow :(

    Only closed Christmas Day and New Years Day. 

    I am PTO-ing the rest of this week- pretty much as soon as it hit 'GO!' on the payroll ltoday, I'm out the doooor! Whoop!

     

    ETA: I am irrationally excited about this, because at my old job, PTO was blocked from Dec- Feb for Year End.  So this is the first time in 8 years I haven't had to work both Christmas Eve, and the day after Christmas.

  • Well I had Friday off because I got all my work done on Thursday. I asked the boss lady if I needed to come in today and she said no. So I have today, tomorrow and Christmas off. But then I don't know when I go back to work since I'm being transferred and the new boss hasn't called me back yet. =/
