My company has block off days and they are usually around the holidays throughout the years. Sometimes I feel like I’m missing out on fun and other times I’m grateful to work during those days because I get paid extra. How do you deal with working holidays and missing out on certain events?

The fear of missing out around the holidays is real. I have accepted that if I want to work in retail, that means that I won’t get to enjoy the holidays the way my friends and family do. It’s still a bummer.
