Zero. Won't report back to work until Jan 13th.

Zero. Headed back 1/6/2014.

Correct.

If the question is about ancient pagan sun god Mithra's birth week, the answer is none.

Because as we all know....NO ONE in government does ****ing ANYTHING.

I will be off all week. Two (of four) paid holidays that we can use anytime from November to January which I am using for the 26th and 27th and the other three we are closed. Can't wait.

Yeah, I get that same stuff here as well, and well, it gets old. The workers do work and tries to get things done.

It's the upper hierarchy area is what's hindering the process.

0!

Yeah.....we've had 3 positions cut and the amount of work increased. Anybody who says that my office doesn't bust their ass can ****ing blow me.

1 day. Monday.

All but Wednesday. I love working xmas, everyone in my dept is out but me. 3 hour lunches, surfing the web, trolling for office skanks, leaving at 3:30. Plus, I hate my kids so there's that.

This.

ROFL wow

5 positions moved on to either promotion/out of the gov't job, still haven't been filled.

Work increased due to shortage of positions not being filled, plus adding more additional work that is not in our scope.

Overtime taken away, which hinders the process.

I agree with your bolded assessment, because when we had OT, I used it to actually, work, to get the damn old cases out as quick as possible.

I have to work Monday - Took Tues Off - Christmas is Wed - I took off Thurs - Have to work Friday.

BUT!

I work from home so NBD
