To those that are working over Christmas

I’m working Xmas Day, Boxing Day and New Years Day (shifts have fallen like this).
So to any others working over the Christmas period. Have a good one and I wish you well and hope your back with your love ones soon.

Best of luck with that. As contra says, ouch.

Is it likely that they will be easy days at least? Or just treated as normal?

Some lads at my place are out now till Friday possibly sat for 800 quid per shift fri/sat.
I wouldn’t give up Christmas Eve day and chance of Boxing Day for that personally :laughing: especially bring out all week to, to each the own but I knew a lad that got a grand for Christmas Day 10 years ago and he woke up in his own bed and was back for dinner.
Stay safe if you’re out there *hic

Despite having no drivers working on my shifts Xmas Day and Boxing day, it has been decided that the office needs to be manned!

So, I shall be loading the Xbox into the car for when I have finished watching tv using the companies WiFi…

Good. Don’t come back.

I’m off from mid-day tomorrow until the 4th January, but all of the milk tanker drivers will be working as usual. To be honest, I wouldn’t be remotely bothered if I was working Christmas Day etc, I take days off when they suit me, not the Church. :stuck_out_tongue:

Finish tomorrow and back on the 4th of Jan…happy days [emoji3] [emoji3] [emoji3]

One problem I can forsee working Christmas Day and NYD is the lack of facilities. Not sure if ordinary petrol stations are open, but I know a lot of motorway service stations shut for both of those and presumably truck stops would too. Nice quiet roads however - it’s boxing day and the day after new years that would seriously worry me.

Seriously worry you? :laughing:

Fail to prepare, prepare to fail.

What is this, amateur hour?
