And my whole night is free to light shit on fire, so I'm cool.

Our union contract is awesome. It even applies to all civilian employees (i.e. not officers) even if we don't pay to join the union.

Awesome.
So, short answer? No work for me! *dances*

Yeah, but at least my store will be paying me double time and a half for the day. UBT and Josh both have to work as well. They work at one of the casinos.
So, honestly I don't mind having to work, except the fact that I have to drive through crappy traffic to get home.
Mall management is RETARTED for not closing the mall on a holiday. There is going to be like no one there. Oh well, it'll be an easy shift with a co-worker who isn't brain dead, so I'm fine with it.
I know I have it off and will be spending family time, Maybe a cookout with a movie afterwords.
Some people are like Slinkys... Not really good for anything, But they still bring a smile to your face when you push them down a flight of stairs.

Verily, Jackman doth proclaim:
There are 358 other days of the year for that. Its just my thoughts thought you dont have to agree.
If people will buy our products on Christmas day, we will be open Christmas day. Fortunately for us, very few would, so we won't be. I wouldn't really mind as long as I worked the afternoon shift, though.
edit: basically if there's worthwhile money to be made, the doors will be open. Kegwen fucked around with this message on 07-01-2005 at 04:07 PM.
As for customer service, they have no holidays
The downside: Tuesday we'll receive all that the Post Office, UPS and FedEx would have brought us Saturday, Monday and what's in for Tuesday. And it all has to be logged in before we leave.

But I have to work the rest of the weekend with a hyperactive teenage nitwit with the incredible ability to spin any topic of conversation towards her boyfriend.
"Hey, cover the register a second, I have to go to the bathroom."
"OMG Bobby did something totally cool in the restroom last night lol 
"
There's going to be a murder in that store one of these days.
Where do you work, Sentow?
Do you sell steins?
I don't get paid for BEING on call, only when I go OUT on an actual call.
I don't get time & a half.
I keep trying to elaborate, but it all comes out sounding like that Counter-Strike movie. SKREEEEEEEEEEEEE!
I'm supposed to work Tuesday too, but I have it off. That way, I can stay out on the apartment balcony all night, watching the various firework shows, followed by random people trying to blow themselves up with illegal fireworks.
Gotta love a view where you can see the fireworks displays from a casino, a ballpark stadium, and a military base, all at the same time.
Without telling me.
We have a big test next week.
FUCK YOU, KYLE.
