Who else is working today?

Well, I'm here working until 6am tomarrow. Who else got stuck working today?

Amoryl · 11-27-2008, 09:40 AM

I'm theoretically working, but generally holidays are our slowest days of the year, I'll be surprised if i get a single call all day.

now tomorrow, on Brown Friday, I'll be busy as all get out.

I'll probably put a few hours in this afternoon. My whole family is out of town so I'll go work to keep busy.

Pretty much all us Canadians.

Only gas stations, convenience stores, and drug stores can be open on Thanksgiving for retail in MA so I am off. When the major companies cry that if they can open on thanksgiving and Christmas they can create jobs then the state will probably allow them to open and I will have to start working.

Yoooo. I am, double time and a half. I'm happy about it

VERY slow day

I'm not working today, but Friday Saturday and Sunday i will. Friday and Sunday will be doubletime pay, and i get paid for Thursday and Friday, it is very hard to pass up the oportunity for such a paycheck, especialy now that i NEED the money bad.

Ditto bro, currently on overtime WITH holiday pay. I'd be insane to turn that down.

Same with Xmas this year, I'm working, but not upset about it. I'll have overtime and holiday pay.

i get shafted on holidays.

technically we get to charge a whopping $30 more per job on holidays, but then 99% of holiday customers find that $30 coupon so i end up getting nothing extra, and out of that $30 i get $9...so basically I'll make on average between $9 and $27 more today than I would on a normal day...at best. for the same amount of work, if i only get one job, i only make $9 more working on a holiday than i did working the day before or any other day.

I'm workining till 4. Double time is OK with me. It's pretty slow here so there's no worries.

$19 an hour to sit at a computer and answer phones? Yes please.
