Time off for Christmas
Just wondering what you are all getting off of work for Chrsitmas.
I have been blessed with ALOT of time off for the Holidays.
I am getting a half day off for Christmas Eve WHICH IS A COMPLETE JOKE (assuming no equipment gets called off rent i a out of town location which will probably happen)
AND I am getting Christmas day off, back to work on boxing day...... Soo much for getting work done on my old toys

I was off on Nov. 20 something and unless there`s tons of snow I won`t likely go back in any major way till April 10 something.
There`s my normal winter program in preventive maintenance servicing and equipment painting but nothing major at this time.
Of course there`s not much in the way of pay either.....

I've got the 24th and 25th off. Then on for 7 more 12 hour shifts, 3 days off and then 7 more. Oh well, gotta pay for Christmas somehow. 
I do have this weekend off, so I'll do most of my Christmas stuff then. Unfortunately, I'm also on call for this weekend. I not get anything at all. Time will tell.....

Sorta long haha. I got an acl surgery (work related) in august, been messing around with wcb alberta ever since. Im off work till my knee is back 100 percent for my job. Since I work a heavy labourous oil field job, its taking awhile. Surgeon wants to see it heal really good, and if it was up to workers comp I would have been working the day of my surgery!
Just a big joke, and it has involved me driving back and forth to edmonton every week, this week will be three trips back and forth!

I have the regular days off 24 & 25th and the 1st and I took the second off as well to make a long weekend. Although being at work is almost a holiday this time of year, just the odd truck to load and that is about it.
