Are you working on Thanksgiving?

the hospital is 24/7/365, and while i have the day off, i'm working wednesday and friday, both traditionally busy for us. the cooks at the hospital do a great setup and the patients and staff are well fed. no-one wants to be with us, but someones' gotta be there.... . i feel for the cops, firefighters and ems, they got it a lot harder

I have the day off!!! And the best part is that it is a paid day off

No, I never worked Thanksgiving. My MIL used to waitress and she'd purposefully work Thanksgiving and all other holidays. Man, the tips she got on just one holiday shift was like all the tips in one WEEK of regular days. She used to work all day then come to our house and we'd have a big thanksgiving meal together. I miss her, she passed away 4 years ago.

I'm laid off and collecting unemployment so I definitely have thanksgiving off!

all retail is closed for Canadian Thanksgiving (back in Oct). Unless there are animals or people to care for, no one works on Holidays here.

I work at a vet so even when we're closed we have to have two people working to take care of the animals. Luckily we choose the holidays we work ... well, usually. Since I've worked there (1 1/2 years) I've worked every holiday except last Thanksgiving and July 4th. And that includes holidays like Memorial Day and such. But I'm only working New Years this holiday season so I'm really happy about that. I really didn't want to work Christmas!!

Nope, no school for me! I am officially on break!! woohoo!!! And one of my best friends is coming tonight from Kansas, and I haven't seen her in almost 2 years!!!!! So I'm all ready for Thanksgiving break!

Being that I work for the USPS in a processing plant, I'm working thanksgiving day. However, that's been normal for me for the past few years. Wars don't takes holidays (the last time that happened was WW1) and I spent the last two years (Jan 03-Jan 05) training troops to go fight in Iraq. Prior to that I also worked for the USPS, and I'm the junior Technician, so I work the holidays. Maybe in about 10 years or so I'll get a holiday off.

[poofy]

[ramanth]

Cooley is closed Thanksgiving and the day after so I get a 4 day weekend!

Andy's job is closed on Thanksgiving but he's working Friday for double pay.

Well since I work at a pet bording facility we can't not come in for the day. We are closed to the public that day, but of corse still need to come in and care for the animals. Everyone is required to work that day, but because everyone is working we are all able to work less hours- we just added more shifts to the day.

I did request friday off though (and got it). Justin has a 4 day weekend and I wanted a day off with him.

I have the rest of the week off. The office that I work in is closing today for the week so I am very proud of that. I am also out of college this week too.
