Yeah, it sucks! Some of you may know, it is holiday decor installations so no Thanksgiving for me
! Maybe some can share their delicious dinners with me?

7 am Thanksgiving till who knows when, when the job is done, then 7 am the next morning............ughhhhh!
I am delirious at this point! Only 2 more weeks of this insane schedule.

Where my cats are
I got a flyer in the mail for K-mart advertising special Thanksgiving Day sales. They will be open all day! I feel bad for all of you having to work. I hope you get a nice suprise treat for having to work through all this! You certainly deserve it!

Yes! I truely believe that everyone is entitled to a day off, like the rest of us hungry folks.

Well OK, maybe not the whole day (as I always forget something and am SOOO thankful when a place is opened). Maybe just stay working until 10am.

IA. If you need me, just meow..
This and Christmas are the only two days I get off each year.
I enjoy these days because I know that noone is going to call me asking silly questions about things they already know the answer to but are just to lazy to think about.

I love this day!!!!!!!!!

I have to as well. I'm going in to work tonight to do meds/rewater all the furbabies at the shelter. Same tomorrow. I never get a holiday off.

It's ok though- my family and I are going to eat dinner around 1pm so that everyone can come
I'm excited! When i'm done with work, i'm going to start putting up the Christmas tree!!!!


Try and have a good Thanksgiving hon! Sometimes we unlucky people get stuck working holidays- but just try and make the best of it

That stinks. We have the option of working holidays at my job, but they still will pay you 8 hours holiday pay on top of whatever you work if you go in. I took off Wed - Fri for Thanksgiving, and Mon - Wed for Xmas though. I love me some days off. I'd be so angry if I couldnt enjoy the entire day with family!
