As a contractor, I have the choice of working over Christmas or getting no money

We'll be here.

I'm off to see my Nan in the morning and having dinner with Mum, Sister and Niece in the afternoon. Back home to give my cats their Xmas dinner about 7:00.

I shall be OOFing with a whiskey in my hand in the evening. No worries, we will keep you company.  :)

Bugger - that ain't too great is it??!
But probably not quite as bad as when I had to work on Millenium Eve, waiting for the Y2K bug to happen...  >:(

Out of over 30 years earning a crust I think my family and I only got 3 Christmas Days together where I was off completely.

If working, recon it was best being nightshift....  N/S Christmas Eve, home about 0700 on Chrimbo Day, have a brew and stay up for the kids pressie opening, bedtime around 10/11 then up for the full Chrimbo works brekkie and the Queens speech at 1500!  

Catch a few (traditional) hours snooze in the afternoon/evening then out again nightshift to guard, watch and patrol like a good 'un!

Brill!   :y

Good grief - now that's harsh!

Would I be correct to assume you are/were one of our boys in blue?

Thought so (apols if it's common knowledge to 99% of the folk on here, but I am still quite new here  :y )
Only reason I asked is that a surprising amount of my friends wear blue suits to work  ;) and they've painted me a similar picture

I am working Christmas night and also night shift on new years eve.
the life of a lowly security gaurd,eh Bertie. ::) :'(
Still its a job ,which is more than a lot of folks have got at the moment.
Good side is,I finished work at 8a.m. yesterday  morning ,not back on duty until 5p.m. Thursday,so I am looking for a 2nd job (part time) to supplement the income,and keep the dream of an R1 for next summer alive. :)
