Depends -- our office closes from midday on Dec 24th and reopens Jan 2nd (PR company).

My sister works for a big leasing company, and has the same deal as you. Brother in law is the same (Xerox).

All depends on your job, but I'm betting its shop work of some kind, in which case that's about right. When I worked in a retail job, I even worked New Years Day.....

Myself I always book my Christmas break early, and use lots of my holiday to get a nice break. This year my last day is this Friday 19th Dec and I'm back at work on Monday 5th Jan.
