I fire this week

Urge to kill. Rising.

This week is so fired. The holiday schedule came out at work. Now I offered to work during Thanksgiving and Christmas, so that I could have New Years Eve and New Years Day off work. It seems reasonable to me. I don't have kids, I'm not going anywhere. I felt good about it.

I'm scheduled to work overnight shifts on both New Years Eve and New Years. Overnight shifts where there is no way I'm going to even get off work early enough to hit a bar. Zmrde!

I mean really. This is such crap and I doubt there is a damn thing I can do about it.

that sucks! Did they schedule you for Xmas and Thanksgiving on top of that??

I'm scheduled to work the day after christmas, which is fine. We had to put in to work three of the days that are set up as holidays (Thanksgiving days, Christmas eve, Christmas, Day after, New Years and New Years eve.) I'm just flabbergasted that I ended up with the two days I asked not to work.

I would ask your supervisor about it and say exactly what you did here… you never know, it might work out. : )

Probably should cut out the swearing. But there's not a lot we can do to alter the almighty schedule.

Taking out the cuss-words would be a good thing but it is worth a try…

Maybe he might find someone that actually wants to work that day.

I could only presume that all the holidays will have a lot of callers… Christmas is probably the worst though.

But that's my birthday. :(

I know. I know. That's why I asked for it off. But from talking to people here today, it doesn't look good. I'm so pissed. Especially as the bimbo girl nearby only has to work two days.

No kidding. They're weirdly round.

If you have to work New Years, I will come up there with a bottle of Jack Daniels and a 12 pack of coke and we can get stinking drunk at your office.

Hahah. You rock.
It looks like now I'm working New Years Eve but not New Years day.

Yup. That sums it up.
