I worked holidays for over 10 years until recently. You get used to it.

Full-time carpenter/contractor, part time security at concerts/events at a local arena, and build custom PCs when I'm not doing either of those. It's a slow period for my full-time job, but a busy period for my part time job and side business. Oh well. :P
Be sure to at least find SOME time to spend with your family and enjoy the holidays.

I hope your own business flourishes enough that you won't require working elsewhere.
I find some time to spend with my family. I get one day off after every three days, so it's good. However getting annual leaves seems a bit trickier. We have 40 annual leaves but actually getting them seems impossible so far.

I've worked every Christmas and New Years for the last 10 years. I was even working on Thanksgiving when my daughter was born. I don't get paid any more than normal either. The reason I rarely complain is because I am so thankful not to be in my "customer's" position - which in this case are patients in a hospital.
It's always nice to get gifts, giveaways, presents - but having your health, hopefully all 4 limbs and mobility, your mental faculties and friends/family that surround you is priceless

I am :( I missed almost all the family and friend get-togethers this year. Will be missing out on the friends get together this weekend as well.
Happy holidays everyone. Wish that the next year would be better than all your previous ones.
