The real world's not all bad. I get two weeks paid off. Sometimes working for academia doesn't suck completely.

I work in higher education and would only get the 24th off if i didn't take vacation.


wtf are you supposed to do on the days that you would go in for work?

I get December 24th off and I am taking that following Monday as a vacation day so I will have a whopping four days off. Sucks in the real world out of school.

Edit: Just realized we get that following Friday of for New Years so I will only have to work three days that week! Cool. :)

I have a week (Christmas-New Year's) but then I'm taking off a week to go skiing with some of my old HS buds.

His work apparantly does not depend on classes being in session.

I get the 23rd and the 24th off, but I'm taking that whole week because I still have 4 vacation days I have to use-or-lose this year.
