Just curious what other fanatics have going on. I'm working this week, with holiday time on the 24th and 25th. Most everyone else is out of the office, I don't have any holiday plans, and I get to roll over vacation so I figured I might as well take advantage of some quiet days at work.
Working Xmas eve and Xmas, hopefully very chill

I'll work at least a little every day this week through Friday.
If there is a lot of work to be done on the 24th or 25th, then I can get some time put back into my PTO bank.

‘Working’ from ‘home’

Christmas on Wednesday is the worst. We just made up the date anyways. Can’t it be one of those 4th Sundays of the months kind of things? It’s almost 2025 but we are still stuck in a dark ages holiday calendar?

Working here. Nothing special planned today so I don't want to burn my vacation. It's good to be in the office: traffic is light, people usually are in the festive mood.

I don’t get PTO but I do budget and plan to take time off around major holidays.

One of the few things in my local IBEW contract I’d like to see negotiated (paid holidays when wholesale houses are closed)

Holidays are the worst around here. Its when the idle hands folks fire up ridiculous IT requests. I save my PTO days for more strategic vacation moments, but man do they test my resolve to change that.

Also working from home today. Pretty sure there is hardly anyone at the office today.
