Every year.. we are giving $1 scratch offs for Christmas/holidays.

This is a billion dollar company, no Christmas/holiday party or outing, they go around every year and give everyone $1 scratch off and call it good. They do get pizza on Friday before the holiday.

Scheduled to work all the holidays

I worked thanksgiving and I’m scheduled to work Christmas Eve, Christmas, New Year’s Eve and New Year’s Day as well. I’m a nurse. I knew that becoming a nurse I would have to work some holidays but it’s not fair that I work all the holidays while other nurses get some holidays off.
