As of about twenty seconds ago, my new work schedule (officially starting the day after Thanksgiving) will be Sunday through Thursday working 8am to 4:30pm (specially for those who don't like the 24-hour clock).
In other news, I have done the dishes, vaccuumed the house, showered and done laundry. And later I may take out the trash, and will definitely write email.
This makes up for being a complete slug and doing nothing but playing video games yesterday.

If you don't call in sick the day before, the day, or the day after (which is pretty easy if you're off that day), then you get credited eight hours of pay at your normal rate. If you work a normal eight hour shift that day, then it's like getting double pay. If you work more or less than that, then it's like getting eight extra hours of pay that don't count towards your overtime-after-forty hours.
