Who else is working Christmas?

I am a CNA working at a long term care center.
I am working 2 shifts, 6:30 AM - 10:30 PM.
16 hours of time and a half.
Happy Holidays

has to work at a restaraunt at 9am on christmas.

but he's a puke, so it's ok :evilgrin:

is working a 12 hour shift on Christmas

I'm sure the patients will be happy having a familiar face around rather than a contract worker too..it's Christmas for them too ;)

and I rather see my residents than most of my family

held here in Anaheim at a local resort for people living in assisted living centers who are developmentally disabled. They are given free rooms a free banquet/dinner dance and a free trip to Disneyland (chaperoned, of course) The holidays are a very lonely time for them because even the staff at their facilities take off so this is their Christmas...it comes a little early...they eat, we sing carols, they like to take the mike and talk on it and they dance all night..even if they use a wheelchair someone brings them to the dance floor and they rock...
I've been doing it several years and I wouldn't trade the gig for half the paid ones I do

;)

What a nice way to give of your time during the holiday!
:yourock:

I didn't know you were a dj. Glad to see you around again! :hi:

But we're closed on Sunday.

the psych nurse. It is her last day on the job.

She moves up in the professional world as of 1/3/06.

also a RN, also working Christmas, starts on her masters
so she can move up

My niece received her masters' and nurse practitioner license last May.

Many opportunities open up with that degree. Ones that let you work regular hours and sit down.

I will be getting my RN in may of '07
she will get her masters shortly after
then we are going to travel, I can't wait

all he had was $7 some odd bucks

There are lots better marks to be had out there...

Right on. Me too

welcome to DU

I would be making triple time! I guess thats why we aren't working christmas.

it's hard to be sick on the holidays.I always try to give my patients a little extra love ...it's not a big deal for me-it sucks a lot worse for them and their families.

The residents enjoy the holidays too
I like being there with them

I'll be trying to remember the names of the once-a-year crowd. O8)

with the names

My husband jokes with me about avoiding driving near a local church. Something about avoiding the traffic jam of the twice a year Catholics. LOL! :hi:

Have good services, Rev!

only one here that does, too.

i love being the new guy at the paper.

to be you
Happy Holidays anyway

please everyone ....Stay safe out there
don't drink and drive

the four corners region of the Americian southwest.
However, I love to going boating on Lake Powell.
I don't think he would approve.

I'll work about 3 hours Christmas morning after the kids open their presents up.

Happy Holidays

He works at a movie theater and apparently it's traditional to stay open on Christmas. Truth be told, I'd rather go there than my family's Christmas.

I work 10pm Saturday-10am Sunday. Then I have to be back at 10pm Sunday for another 12 hour shift. :puke:

love your sig line!
Happy holidays

I'm not really a participant in the "War on Christmas". I myself say "Happy Holidays" to be inclusive unless I know for sure what the person celebrates, but if someone says something to me I don't get uptight over the greeting they choose. I just have that down there for any lurking freepers--just to cheese them off :evilgrin:.


Happy Holidays to you as well!

"cheese" off freepers
