Boxing Day is not a stat so some companies will just get 26th off for the Christmas that's on the Sunday.

Friday and Monday off, and I'm taking the rest of the week off until my job is over. 12 days of holiday, 6 days paid
Then I'm back to school on the 4th of January

Since we're on the subject of Boxing Day and Christmas, I hope this year's Boxing Day Sales are better than last year's.

the last few year's BD sales have all been a joke.

I'm looking forward to doing US online shopping with Black Friday instead

Boxing day sales have been weak for the longest time. They used to be awesome when I was a little kid.

i'm getting 2 days off in lieu of xmas/boxing day. i also booked off the 3 days prior to this so i have 9 days off

also, i'll probably volunteer to work xmas day since it's a super stat and i would get paid almost triple-time.
