Bad Moon Risen'
Friday is straight time here. They are forcing from the bottom up. One of the FT guys said he asked to work and was told they wanted to use the casuals and lower seniority guys. He is going to press the issue as we have always been able to work in the past. I normally work that day but am on vacation that week. It is such easy money.
In our local you would be able to work Black Friday even though you were on vacation the week of Thanksgiving. Have a coworker that has taken the week of Thanksgiving off for years because it is the week of deer hunting in WI. He hunts Sat through Wed, returns home for Thanksgiving and then works Black Friday for his 8 hours at double time. Technically, he is not on vacation Thur and Friday as they are paid holidays. In most instances, he has already taken two additional days off prior to Thanksgiving week as in lieu of days.
