Christmas Break - Blu-ray Forum

Batman1980 · 12-17-2010, 06:28 PM

So what's everyone doing for Christmas break? I intend to work and spend time with family, maybe go to the movies a couple of times.

perdition · 12-17-2010, 07:40 PM

I wish I still got a Christmas break. My Friday that I get off I will sleep in till 8:30, other than that just rest and watch a blu-ray or two.

Blu-Benny · 12-17-2010, 07:47 PM

i get the 24th and 27th off. 24th i'll hang out @ home w/the wife and kids then go the church.

I dont have plans

Macruz and I got different weeks off so he is off this week, I am off from the 22-3rd and so I am going to have to figure out something. BOOOH

Not sure what I'm doing yet, but I'm off the 24th, 25th, 26th and 27th. Have a request in for the reminder of the week, but it hasn't been approved yet.

Our company actually has a Christmas Shutdown, so we have eleven days off starting on the 23rd.

I plan on removing snow from the driveway a few times, traveling a little to see family, and doing some gaming and blu-ray watching, of course.

Christmas break is my busiest time of the year as I have a lot of year-end stuff that needs to be done. Fortunately I can work remotely but I'll still be spending most of Christmas weekend and especially New Year's weekend working. The final day of the year falling on a Friday causes me a lot of pain because we get paid on Friday so a lot of the stuff I need to be done by December 31 will have to wait until payroll is done on the 28th or 29th, and I also have to get billing done at that time.

Don and I usually have the same Christmas Break it seems like. Off from the 23rd (noon) - Jan 3rd. Going to be FREAKING awesome.

I plan on playing some video games, going to build a shoe rack (double decker) for the wife, play w/ my 2 boys and drink lot of eggnog.

jawsfan1975 · 12-17-2010, 08:57 PM

I'm off from the 24th 'til Jan 3rd, I'll be catching up on a lot of blu's and playing Kinect with my son a lot I think.

For some reason my work is always busy on Christmas Eve and New Years Eve, you would think people would want to be home with their families.

My vacation starts on the 24th and I won't be back in the office until mid-January (~20th, I think). I'll spend some time in Ontario for Xmas, then head back south to the US in the new year.

lucv13 · 12-20-2010, 03:32 AM

Used my last 3 vacation days, add in the Stats and weekends got myself 10 days off. Finish work at 7 am the 24th head out to Ottawa to spend Christmas with my eldest Daughter return on the following Wednesday, to relax and party on the weekend then back to work on Monday night January 3rd Woohoo - can't wait for this week to be over...
