This is first time I can remember not working night shift Christmas Eve and 
Christmas Day, I shouldn't have to work New Years either.

I almost wish I would have worked, 8 hours holiday pay, + extra pay for 
actually working on a holiday, all in addition to overtime (already put in 
52 hours this week).  I could have gotten my chip from Doug for less than 2 
days work.....dangit, why did I have to go and do the math on that after the 
fact.

Oh well, I still hope everyone had a great Christmas.....maybe I'll work New 
Years.
