Ah...but think of the ovies!?!

Or, as a fella on my team once said, the cushiest time of the year...no bosses, managers etc to interfere or interrupt with stupid emails every 10 mins...

I'm off this year, but worked last, and rostered on for xmas and new next year.

Have the best one that you can fellas, and stay safe!
Never forget that lots of doctors etc also shut down for the Christmas holidays!

I'm a sucker for a combi of ovies and TOIL (time off in lieu)!
Otherwise the crippling bl00dy PAYE is just too much for me.

That said, offshore, xmas / NYear are just another day, your tough for being rostered! We do try to be as as fair as possible though, and share the misery.

...no ovies at all anymore :sad1:
Only full additional days....
