How many of you have to work the Friday after Thanksgiving? This is my first job where I have to, and it so ruins the holiday for me, really it doesn't even feel like Thanksgiving this year.

I hope that the rest of you got the four day weekend.

No I don't. Thankfully my employer gives us less single days off to give us yesterday & today off, and a week between xmas and new year's.

I did have it off. I hear you though -- does make it tough to enjoy the holiday!

Having said that, I had a migraine Fri through Sunday, so didn't get to enjoy the time off anyway.

I am not a doctor, just a patient striving for recovery and hoping to offer support to others, too! Many blessings to you!
