The people who are working Xmas day, what places are actually open to deliver to that day■■?
I must’ve upset someone, I’m on from 23rd to 28th, 3 days off and back in 6am on New Years Day. No drinks for me over Christmas.

I’ll have your bevvies mate!
Got 3 shifts in Reading on the railways, starting at 23.00 on 24th then nothing till after new year, unless the agency decide to give me something over new year. Not holding out much hope though, been a very quiet xmas rush.
I’ve got Christmas Eve, Christmas Day and Boxing Day off… then back to normality.

I wished we could go back to how it was when I was a boy, everywhere closed for about 5 days, nice and quiet and spent the holidays visiting family.
I remember, if you got a toy that needed batteries, and mum forgot to get them, you was knackered!!
The only shop I remember opening was the news agents boxing day morning only.
In london now it’s like a normal day.
Where’s the batteries maw?
It needs batteries?
Aye it does, oh ffs man!!!
I remember this when i was a wee boy on numerous chrimbos. You know another thing thats changed for the worse shops never used to open on a sunday well your corner ones would but im talking about town centres they used to be like ghost towns on a sunday.

I’d imagine it won’t be RDCs but the lads working will be doing things like Milk collection, as that has to happen 365 days a year!
My christmas shifts are on railway maintainance. The site I’m on has a posession of the line from 01.00 on christmas day till 06.00 on the 27th. The truck driving part will only be about 30 mins on xmas eve and 30 mins on 27th, the rest is operating the access boom for the 12 hrs shifts
Thinking of doing a sicky now on boxing day night

Same as me, mate; Busy all last week, not turned a wheel all this week. Lovely little job, but that wont pay the mortgage so I rang the place where I used to be a trainee plant operator. They’re sending me a form but they shut for Christmas from tonight to Jan 2nd so it’ll be an uneasy Chrimbo methinks.
