I'll be at the nuthouse.
Working
4-midnight (my regular shift.)
I have a theory (perhaps previously expounded on) about Thanksgiving.
Thanksgiving is a holiday, that more than any other, brings together families that don't really like each other nor do they get along particularly well.
Earlier in the day, however, there is a lot to be done. Turkeys to be basted, pies to be baked, tables to be set. Everyone is busy, and the tensions don't really start to leak out.
Once the bird hits the table, all hell breaks loose. I think the electric carving knives have some impact on this effect.
If if weren't for the fact that I will be working until midnight the day before thanksgiving, I would usually prefer taking the day shift, but waking up at 6am is SOOOOO not an option. Not even for time and a half, and a holiday day to be taken at a later time.
