Stacy 0 #3 November 26, 2003 no family in the area and i have to work the day after (stoopid health care) so no travelling. We're having vagabound thanksgiving at a coworkers house. Should be interesting. ALthough I do think I shold get paid for the holiday without PTO time, since I"ll be spending it with my coworkers anyway.... __ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GARYC24 3 #4 November 26, 2003 I hear my company is now closed for Fri. Our dept. still hasn't gotten the "official" word.. But definetley will be closed. So, if I knew that I would have accepted invitation to go with real close friend to her relatives in Las Vegas with them. Now, I'm sort of getting sick, head cold, ears, runny nose, eyes. And I have to work PT job tonight for 3-4 hrs. Maybe after work I go to store and buy something to cook for tomorrow, and rent movies. And go do a few jumps on Sat!

Shotgun 1 #5 November 26, 2003 Well Rich and I will probably be having Thanksgiving dinner at the Bombshelter (assuming they're having one this year!??). That's the closest I can get out here to my mom's home cooking (and I sure as hell don't want to eat MY home cooking! ) They've had a really good dinner the last two Thanksgivings that I've been here... so you could come join the other homeless skydivers at Perris.

souleh 0 #6 November 26, 2003 It's more than likely I'll be called into work on christmas morning. The shop stays open, you're not allowed to take holiday time during peak periods (christmas etc).. so that's a bit shit. Hmm... you never know when you're going to suddenly get flu, right?

Muenkel 0 #7 November 26, 2003 Hey Jason, Being in the hotel business, I've missed many a holiday. I know how much it sucks. I'm sure it is unlikely, but if you can get a plane ticket consider yourself invited to my family's Thanksgiving. A true New England Thanksgiving with a huge incredible family. The house also has 4 guestrooms with a private bath. It probably would be impossible to get a plane ticket this late, but just know the invitation stands. Happy Thanksgiving to ya bro, Chris _________________________________________ Chris Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AntiPinkChrissy 0 #9 November 26, 2003 lucky, I would much rather goto the Misfits dinner that I was invited to rather than my family dinner. ~La La Gang Member #2~ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
narcimund 0 #10 November 26, 2003 My boyfriend went to the Moab base boogie for the week so we're not having our Thanksgiving night post-feast party for the first time in 6 years. Instead I'm doing mountains of housework and minor remodeling. It's not the same, but it's incredibly satisfying to spend several days walking around the house just in underwear slopping paint on everything. And I'm hardly at a loss for good food ;) First Class Citizen Twice Over Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

riggerrob 613 #14 November 26, 2003 Don't feel bad. When I was in the military, I used to work major holidays just so the older guys could spend time with their families. That worked until they lied to me one too many times about compensatory times off .... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WFFC 1 #17 November 26, 2003 I've actually got the opposite this year - Only been home with the family for Thanksgiving and Christmas once each in the past 12 years. I have a feeling I'll be familied out since I live here again. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skysprite 0 #18 November 26, 2003 I'm going to be alone on Thanksgiving this year as well. I'm not going home because I have a night class tonight that doesn't get out until 9. I also fly standby, so naturally I can't guarantee I'll get back when I'm supposed to, and considering I have my first final on Monday, that wouldn't be a good thing. Thanksgiving is nice and it would be nice to be with my family, but this is the difficult time in the semester when students are always so busy. As cliche as it may be, I'm buying a hungry man turkey dinner or something and eating that tomorrow. ~skysprite Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
