Are you working between Christmas and new years? I have a few things that must be done so I am but I’m the only person doing so in my department. It’s like a ghost town until after next week (went in yesterday to check on my run)

I’ve gotten a couple calls today since I’m the delegate for my department as well

I don't think you can call any of my time on site right now "working." I'm physically there, yeah, but there is literally nothing going on. Most people are still out, the ones like me who aren't have zero productivity or motivation left in us.

Nice lol
I’m just staring at my phone
I got a call at 4 AM yesterday so that sucked but otherwise not much

I am off all next week and I am so excited. I was starting to get really burned out at work and have really been looking forward to having some time off. Hope everyone has a great New Years.

Yeah this is definitely my normal recharge period
I’m just gonna take a week after new years

Thankfully I’m not on the actual days but between them I am

Sorry to hear, at least you get a couple days though
