as in we get no holiday days. We all thought we'd get Monday the 26th off and we do not.
I am extremely upset.

Re: work just told us no time off for Christmas...
Bah humbug! Maybe Santa will bring you a "cough" and you'll have to call in sick Monday...
What a grinch!
4 Fresh IVF cycles + 1 FET where embies didn't survive the thaw = 2 perfect little men!
sFET 11/9/11 - Beta 11/18 BFP!
ditto!!
isn't the rule when a holiday falls on a weekend you get closest weekday off? so if on Sat you get off Fri and if on Sun you get off Mon?
what BS?

It's been a long journey. TTC since 9/06. multiple IUI's and IVF's and 4 m/c's. IVF#3 = BFP, twins, induced at 34w6d due to baby b passing away (no explanation). Delivered on 35w1d, Baby A - baby girl, and Baby B - baby boy, our little angel.
MTHFR A1298C & C677T, Immune Issues and Factor II
TTC since March/April 2010
DX: MFI - less than 1 million sperm, 26% motility
DH put on anastrozole to increase counts
June/July 2011 100 mg Clomid + TS IUI#1 & IUI 2 - BFN :-(
Forced break due to DH getting spinal surgery in August 2011
IVF - January 2012: BFN
FET in April 2012 - BFP at 6dp5dt! Beta #1 at 9dp5dt: 82.5, Beta #2 at 12dp5dt: 352 Beta #3 at 19dp5dt: 6000, saw heartbeat and one little bean at 5W6D!
After nearly 3 years of waiting our LO was born December 18th 2012!
That sucks. When a holiday falls on a Saturday, we get nothing off at my office. It's totally bad for morale and I never understand why a business would do that (unless it is a critical business..) Ba humbug!

We are a private company. There is no rule that I know of. No law. Holidays are apparently a privelege.
Last year we split the staff so there was someone here on Friday and Monday. They arent doing that this year. THey are offering double time. Im sorry I want my time with my family.
I think Im going to cry.

That's very odd...I would at least think they'd offer you a floating holiday since Christmas falls on the weekend this year!
Can they not give those who want time off a day on either side of the weekend and then those that WANT to work can get the double time? You'd think it'd be a money saver for them to do it that way...jerks!

that sucks!
our company just announced that they are having layoffs soon, so it's a pretty sucky Christmas here too.
Im the assistant controller at a oil, HVAC company. We have on call people to deliver oil should customers run out, we have on- call people to fix things should they be broken. We cant draft anyone, banks are closed. We set gas prices but those will be set through the holiday weekend. There is no mail. Last year we split it up which worked out fine. Ugh. I am pretty upset.

We dont get a list in the beginning of each year, no. They have a list of holidays. All 6 of them or something. Not many.
We were going to go home but DH has to work a ton so we arent. My in-laws are coming.
They are paying us double time so if I call in sick I do miss that. While yes, it is nice to be paid that. Id rather be off with everyone. I may take off on Wednesday as DH is off that day so we can do something with his family. Its extremely frustrating.
