I'm working 24 hours... 5 pm on chistmas eve til 5 pm christmas day. Working 24 hours and getting 36 hours pay. A fun filled day at the firehouse, lazyboy recliner and christmas movies. :D :rofl:

Aint it great! slow day in the city so just clean and check equipment and relax for the day. and getting double time at that! ill work the holidays cuz i dont have kids or a wife and so others on my shift can spend time with their little ones during Xmas. maybe one day some nice young proby will return the favor for me as i am for the old guys now.

Hey Murray, where are you on? We're not too too busy up here lately, fire wise we're nothing like the city, I think I only ran 4 or 5 good working house fires this year on my shift. But similar to you we have alot of highway and a lot of assisted living facilities. So most of our time is spent there.

Stay Safe!,

we're not working Christmas eve or day but the whole week is holiday for us. so wed-friday will be triple time for the first 8 hours and double for the next 4hrs. so 32 hrs pay for 12hrs work or over a $grand/day. we're swamped w/ work and looks like it'll last to next Christmas, the moneys good since it buys fun toys now just got to use them.

OT but picked up a used 16' Wenowah ultralite kevlar canoe last night 36#, this is going to make portaging so much easier.
