ifworkpermits Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 I'm working and it is slow as well... Nice to not be in a retail environment anymore though. Retail always sucks on holidays. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

papermonsters Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 I work 2-10 tonight. I have a feeling it's going to be either ridiculously slow or bat shit crazy. Nothing in between. NOTHING. hellbent 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottheisel Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 We're closed today but I have so much shit to do (and am taking two half-days off later this week) that I came in today for a few hours to try and chip away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuzzersonKillwell Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 I'm at work for now. I generally work holidays like Memorial Day or the 4th until someone calls. At least get to bank a few extra. Our policy is you get X number of hours off per year, and they include something like 60 or 80 for holidays. If you work a holiday you just keep those hours.

yocaseycasey Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 I would work EVERY holiday then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dillhole Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 I never work Mondays anyways as I'm Tuesday-Saturday, but since the entire place is closed today, and tomorrow is technically a "Monday" I don't have to work until Wednesday. So tomorrow I will be getting paid to sit on my ass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
catalinacaper Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 My work is open 365 days a year, so holidays don't mean shit to us. No time and a half or anything. Should be illegal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nateleeg Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 I don't believe sears pays time and a half for memorial day, but I'm getting paid to sit on the internet and take care of personal stuff, and lurk on VC.

steviex2shoes Posted July 4, 2012 Share Posted July 4, 2012 Working, but not getting double pay or anything. Oh the life of a salaried worker...I'll get to use this day like a vacation day later on in the year which is pretty sweet though. Ran a 5k this morning, now calling parents to tell parents their kids can come to camp on Monday. Then I'm shooting off loads of fireworks tonight for all the campers here currently. Kind of satisfied with this day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigbruise Posted July 4, 2012 Share Posted July 4, 2012 I do in home health care. So I'm at "work" watching baseball and playing on my computer. $20 an hour today as well. To sit on a fucking couch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
