I'll probably stay up until Tuesday afternoon and call it quits. Week of Thanksgiving might be my favorite week of the year. Starting Tuesday night I'll go into full celebration mode and go out with some friends, then spend all day Wednesday food shopping, baking, and soaking in the crowds. Day of I'll organize a early morning frisbee/soccer game for the ones who are still in town and then hit up my family by lunchtime. Thursday night through Friday used to be non stop football, but I have no idea what the schedule is like this year.

GOAT week.

I love Thanksgiving.

I usually take off W, TH, F.

A few times in the past I’ve had to work every day but TH and that sucked.

Working every day Thursday but it’s a trade off for Christmas this year. Tacking some more days off in December.

Worth it.

I take a full Thursday. Some years I work a full day Friday, some I take the day off. Just depends what I have going on and if I can spare the time away from the office. Unfortunately, this is looking like a full Friday year.

I'm off all that week. I have vacation to burn so it's that week and all of the Christmas break basically. I'll work again in 2021.

I don't think I've ever worked a single day during the week of Thanksgiving my entire career.

Its just a given that I take the entire week off every year.

Saturday through Wednesday is deer camp time.

It’s my favorite holiday. I’m working Monday and taking the rest of the week off.

none normally - most of my coworkers have family in from out of town and since it is usually just my wife and I, i cover for them to spend with their families. however i am taking the day before this year, cause my folks are coming in - and my dad has major health issues and Late stage Dementia - will likely be the last Thanksgiving I have with him.
