So, for folks who don't normally get New Years Eve off, are you getting it off this year (because New Years Day is on Tuesday)?
The rest of our school does, but my department is supposed to work. A little annoying, because the dean sends out a note saying we are closed, then our big big boss says that we know it doesn't apply to our department.
ita, are you around? I have head injury questions for a scene I'm working on.
We get the 25th and the 1st off, but work full days both the eves. TV just don't stop for the holidays.
I am getting the Eves off this year. We just got an email from the Big Cheese, and my preview noted: "Nominating Committee Unanimous Recommendation for New Firm Management." When I opened the message, it was a picture of the Managing Partner's golden retriever.
So. That's my new boss now.
UC always had the 24th, 25th, 31st and 1st as holidays.
I just told my staff they could all leave at 2 p.m.
wishes Sparky1 was my boss
I don't know, I thought this was the quote of the 90s:
"With every song that I write, I compare it to the Beatles. The thing is, they only got there before me. If I'd been born at the same time as John Lennon, I'd have been up there."
(Noel from Oasis)
HR hasn't told us we can leave early, but I'm taking a long lunch just BECAUSE I CAN. There will even be beer.
Not only do I have to work the 24th and the 31st, I'm also working the 1st, because my company has released a service pack that doesn't apply to three quarters of our customers and will wipe out their data if they don't carefully read the warnings. Just the thing you want to do to a company that's trying to shut down for Christmas.
"But we're buying you lunch!"
The only reason the company is buying us lunch is because they dont' want us to leave our desks.
