I don't envy you. Freight workers get the shitty end of the stick. I can't comment on Murkeyrail. The rest have 2 days off. TPE wanted to run a boxing day service and were politely told to do one.

No finishing here, unfortunately. I had to save paid leave just to have Christmas Eve and Boxing Day (and will likely have to call in for a meeting on the latter), and will be in NYE (and maybe first day of the year, as well).

Still, as others have pointed out, many have fewer days, so I shouldn’t complain.

What about the poor sods whose holidays haven't increased for years? I've been stuck on 365 days a year for the last ten years!

Thought I had it pretty good finishing on the 21st and returning on the 7th, but it seems some have trumped me!

You should really insist on being put on the Chinese Calendar, as then you’d average 10 more days a year.

Of course, they would just further devide your pension, and you would have to spend more time with your family, so the extra days may not be worth it. ;-)
