Tomorrow being Christmas Eve, I completely agree with her

Exactly. I would reply "Pay me 3x my usual rate and we have a deal".

Here in Scotland christmas eve is a normal work day. It's christmas and boxing day we take off.

Nope. 2 days extra pay isn't enough to miss my kids' reactions when the Christmas tree lights are turned on.

You don't turn the lights on until Christmas Eve?? When do you put your tree up?

[-] superkret@feddit.org 5 points 1 week ago

I bring it inside on the 24th.
And back outside after the 26th.
It's a living tree in a large pot, and putting it inside for too long and then back out in the cold could kill it.

Its a regional difference i believe

Nope. No deal. I need my downtime to recover.

It's mandatory 2x here where I live, but even then it doesn't exist outside of places with shift work usually

As a medic and fireman, you spend a lot of your holidays celebrating them with your closest coworkers. I don't see what the big deal is.......

Thank you for giving up your family time to keep your community safe and healthy.

Are you being facetious? It's clearly not the same having to work because you're a medic vs being a programmer or whatever else for a random private company.

Hello fellow Cyanide and Happiness fans!

About this community and how I post the comics… Many moons ago, I would ask my Dad to save the newspaper for me everyday so I could read my favorite comic strips. Of course these days you can read your favorite comics online instead of a newspaper, but I love the nostalgia of reading the daily comics. Anyway, one of my favorite current comics is Cyanide and Happiness and I will be posting the daily release from their website (https://explosm.net) and a an extra or two randoms.

Cyanide & Happiness (C&H) is a webcomic created by Rob DenBleyker, Kris Wilson, Dave McElfatrick and Matt Melvin. The comic has been running since 2005 and is published on the website explosm.net along with animated shorts in the same style. Matt Melvin left C&H in 2014, and several other people have contributed to the comic and to the animated shorts… Read more: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyanide_%26_Happiness

Hope you enjoy and feel free to contribute to the community with art, media, cool stuff about the authors, tattoos, toys and anything else, as long it’s Cyanide and Happiness related!

Ps. Sub to all my comic strip communities…
