Salute to all the service industry workers who had to smile through the “oh you poor thing, they’re making you work on Christmas” from the people who insisted on using the service on Christmas. If they’re really lucky they might even get a few Christian extremist customers who berates them for working on Christmas because that’s a sin and they’re going to hell.

The thing is at Christmas everyone feels the same way so at least in an office, you have the luxury of most work being done at a snails pace. My big problem this year was that I booked my holidays ending with the family stuff and that was a bad idea. I needed that week holiday after being with family all week

Depends on the job. I’ve had some jobs where I always felt like a slave and lost the will to live. And finally after years of shit jobs after shit jobs, I got this current job. It is a drop from heavens and I’ll never let it go until I retire.

I actually can’t wait to get back to work
