1/2 day on the 22nd, Christmas day, 1/2 day on the 29th, and NYD. I'm taking off those 3 and a half between Christmas and NYE because I have a shite ton of vacation time left.

Friday- Monday for Christmas, just Monday for New Years, but the Tuesday - Friday after Christmas will be half days at most. And not much work will be done after Wednesday of next week, either. Heck, not much work is being done now, come to think of it.

Off the 23rd through the 31st.

Would be off New Years as well, but Im going into the office and watch bowl games and get on here and get paid two extra vacation days for it, and Ill probably leave at lunch.

Christmas Day and New Year's Day only. I would like more time off but if I'm not working and making charges, I'm not making money. Haven't had more than 10 days off in a row in 9 years since I started my career. Not even sure what I would do with myself if I had 2+ weeks off. I'm def jealous.

Oh I'm sure you know the interworkings of my job better than I do.

And I've never been a bag boy. I managed a store.

I pretty much shut it down from the 20th-5th, other than doing a little bit of wrapping up the current year and planning the next. It’s damn near impossible to get anything work related accomplished with other humans during those couple of weeks, so I just get my ducks in row during that time.

I will be "working from home" the entire week of Christmas and most of the week of New Year.

Officially, we are off Friday, Dec 22nd, and Monday, Dec 25th.

No you really don't. I'm not straight commission so you buying a few cases doesn't pay me shite.

Clearly you have no idea what you're talking about. It's okay.

No shite. If I shut my doors, turned my phone off or didn’t answer any emails for a week I’d be out of business.
