Do you get overtime?
must get some kind of double pay?
Not sure about where you live but here that's illegal.Nope. I didn't get double pay. I worked about 4 1/2 hours on Thanksgiving and got paid regular pay. I did get 8 hours of holiday pay for free though. I did end up working almost 44 hours hours for that week. So that last 4 hours count at "overtime" which means I get time and a half.

I've got to work Christmas eve. *sigh* I'm always working on the holidays. The only holidays I don't work are Easter Sunday and Christmas. I don't work those days because that is the only time the store closes. I work all the other holidays though. It sucks because my hubby is always off on the major holidays. So he sits at home twirling his thumbs because I'm at work and can't do anything with him.
Try working on boxing Day, I bet it much worse.I've got to work Christmas eve. *sigh* I'm always working on the holidays. The only holidays I don't work are Easter Sunday and Christmas.

Tell me about it, not the boxing day that just went but the one before I went shopping on boxing day and yeah it was crazy.I do work on Boxing Day. It is terrible. Everyone that got clothes that didn't fit or everyone that got a gift card, they will come back to the store to do their exchanges or spend their gift cards.
That my days off don't last very long before I have to go back to work but my days at work seem like they drag on forever and ever.
