i think ive finished alreadynowt mon worked tuesday nowt wed nowt today (yet) will probably get a call friday when i like a night out on the town …never mind
think of the money i`ll save
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.
good luck with it,as a old mate o mine once said “never look back! only onwards and upwards”… fortunately i no longer have a mortgage (nor the big house and wife come to that) so i work to pay for the fast car and slow wimmen

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
Readypower?
Lol used to just put em on track,give the m/c phone number n ‘adopt the position’ in van,big pillow against window for 11 hr 50 mins! 
In answering the OPs question if Iam working over Christmas
I’m on earlies (6-2) Christmas eve, Christmas day, & Boxing day, so if any of you breakdown on the NW motorways, call in on the SOS box and I’ll personally sort things out for you!
I might even send Highwayman with the mince pies.
Working christmas eve till 20:00 got the 25/26 off then working upto 20:00 new years eve then just new years day off.
Shame no one ever wants a coach on the 25/26
Started 4am on Friday 21st, which was good, finished at 1800.
Not in again til Thursday 27th at 2100 for two night shifts. Then I am off for life. bloody redundancy.
although i wont be working ill be away, im tipping christmas eve in madrid reloading the 30th and then heading for the russian border

No, SRS Rail.
We have lorry mounted access platforms and booms. With a bit of luck the linesmen will have their operators ticket and I’ll be adopting the position in the cab
