Ok, what's everyone going to do for their holiday bash this year?

Me, of course I'm going to Disneyland, where else would I go?

New Years and the 4th of July being the only times you can cross Main Street
and cop a feel it's so crowded, and no one says a word (groucho marks
eyebrow imitation)

I go into work for night shift at 6:30PM. Some of the nice things are:
No sharing the road with drunks, extra $$ in my paycheck. Bad things
include: away from family at New Years, working at night (but since
management is at home the BS factor is much lower). 8 )

Um...unless you're running a 12-hour shift you'll be encountering the
<adjective censored> drunk drivers when you get off. The statistics
of how many drivers on the road are demonstrably "under the influence"
is -- pardon the pun -- staggering.

 > extra $$ in my paycheck.

I'll admit that as a senior engineer (and now -- $DEITY help me -- once
again a manager) I'm making a decent salary, but it *would* be nice if I
got paid for overtime. Or even a bonus, something I've never had. (The
two full-time, full year jobs I've held in the past 40 years were for
a state government and a nonprofit research firm, neither of which offer
bonus payments to employees.)

Amen to that last. It also helps for me that there aren't many users
running around, meaning that I can get my work done with fewer
interruptions.

Yes, 12 hour shifts. Hopefully the idiots will be done removing utility
poles by 7AM.
