Who will be at work tomorrow?
We're closing the office at noon, but I'll be in by 6am to get 3 payrolls in and all the payables checks cut. Just pray the network's not down like it usually is on Monday mornings...

8. I will.
:hi: I had all last week off (spent most of it helping my mother, who has a rotator cuff tear). I work tomorrow but have Tuesday off, so I can't complain (much). :P :hi:

9. I'm gonna be at somebody else's work tomorrow... does that count? :P
I was planning on going down the the Community College I'm trying to get enrolled in and set up some classes for the spring semester before it's too late. Which means that some poor schmuck who works in the advisor's office is gonna have to be nice to me and pretend they want to be there that day for a little while. :)

Lelapin's been there before, so even if I can't get away, the two of you can shop since my office is above some of the stores. x(

17. I'll be there.
The ferry system closes for no man. Or woman.

Course, there will probably be just a skeleton crew of us in the office. The bosses will be off.

And it has nothing to do with Nazereth.

I am SO fucking sick.

20. My ass, all day
but it will probably be really quiet, as most of the 77 people I support will be gone, and the one guy I need to get some info from for a big project will be gone, too.

21. The usual 5pm - 1am stuff. I'll be celebrating the New Year at work.
People will call about their credit card at unusual times of the day and the year. Still it makes for an interesting 7/24/365.25 job.

I love working when the f***ing herd is gone - more money, less people, no asshole managers around, no rush-hour, no 500 emails to read each day.....this is my kind of work environment! :thumbsup:

30. Hiya, lizzie!
I'll be working until the jobs I have are out the door. May be two hours, may be six.

Sounds like you had a great get-together, so that'll carry you a while.

32. Half a day. Traffic shouldn't be too bad
Except in the afternoon, all the 18-20 year olds will be heading for Ontario with its lower drinking age. That should clog up some roads.

I'm sure ThomCat and Lelapin will be great rescuers, though.

36. Me, by choice
The road is my home
My blood is diesel fuel
My DNA is ECM software
The very reason for my being
is trucking. Getting it there
when they want it. That's my
life and I wouldn't trade it
for a winning Powerball ticket.

37. I will
I do accounts receivable. I'll have the bank run to do and since I sent out statements last week, I'll have checks to receipt in. I have a butt load of filing I gotta get done quick, end of the year and all. But I don't work on Tuesday.

39. All day, but on the day shift
The fucking carpet-dwellers chopped our paid holidays from 10 to 7 with less than barely two months left in the year. Black Friday, gone. New Years Eve, gone.

Half the plant, or more, opted to use vacation time instead. I don't have any particular place to be, so I said I'd work. I have to be in by 7am, though... :-(

44. I'll be in for awhile
Year end gifts -- credit cards have to be processed in the calendar year or they don't count for this year's taxes.

Sorry I missed the party; the photos made it look like a lot of fun. Happy New Year and hope you feel better....:hi:

46. I pretty much always give the staff holidays off and I do chores
I actually like doing them when I am alone - it's an abbreviated routine anyway so one person can handle it. The barn's peaceful, I can do them in my own way, no clients around so I can work without interference from them...

I'll be home in plenty of time for the party tonight and getting up early and working tomorrow will help get rid of the party's after-effects if yaknowhatImean.... :party:
