Do/Would you work on Christmas Day?

[RyRy]

If the money was decent, I would. Christmas Day isn't as big a deal when you get older, I know my sister wouldn't want to because she has a little one but I can see my parents on Boxing Day. I know my dad works most of Christmas Day (hes a police officer) and he gets decent pay... So yeah, if money is good I would.

Well I'm getting paid double my wage. Would you lot who said depending on the pay do it for double?

i earn 7,41 an hour, so i would very happily do it for almost 15 pound p/h (so err 95 pound in a day that is?)

I don't think I'd personally like to work christmas day... I feel it's a time when we should all be at home with our families, watching tv and talking to each other having a good time, not doing our day-to-day job.

I think everywhere (apart from the emergency services and hospitals and etc) should be closed Christmas day...

I'm not working Christmas Day, paper gets shut down - I'm off on Christmas Eve as well so I can travel home. If I didn't have the 24th off I wouldn't be able to get home, and would prefer to be working to take my mind off the fact I'd be missing Christmas with my family.

However, my other 2/3 jobs (part time/freelance/zero hours contract) I'll probably do some of on Christmas morning, depending on what schedules are like around that time.

Yeah, I'd probably do it for double. Although if it was my upcoming job, I'm salaried so I think I'd just get a load of holiday time if I worked Christmas Day... But then, it's likely I'd be working on call anyway so it wouldn't be a massive deal.

No, I work in a shop so we're always shut on Christmas Day. This year, they've finally realised that hardly anyone comes in on Boxing Day so we're open 10-4. Last year it was 8:30-6 and I was in all day, most pointless thing ever. I also only had Christmas Day off last year, so it's a bit pointless just having one day off. This year I have Christmas Eve off too, in 10-4 Boxing Day, but I'm not too fussed.

I don't but would. I want to be a midwife and women don't stop giving birth at Christmas. I suppose its harder though when you have a family of your own but to me it's just like any other day
