Default Is there work on Black Friday?

I work as a loader for the UPS hub in South San Francisco and I'm wondering if there's work today or not. I'd like to know, please and thank you!

ALSO I HOPE EVERYONE HAD A GOOD THANKSGIVING!

My work for today:

Wake up at the butt crack of dawn so my dad and I can go to Harbor Freight Tools to buy a hand held grinder for 9.99. (Probably will last about a year before having to replace it)

Make Emeril's sourdough blueberry pancakes and all the "fixins" (I made my own starter. It's still young..only about 1 month old)

Lay around-catch up on sleep

Go to Mother-in-law's

Ditch kids with her so wife and I can go and eat at Olive Garden

Went to Target to get new Levi's (I've moved up a size since going to feeder dept.)

Go back to Mother-in-Laws-Burned garbage in burn barrel (she lives in the sticks).

Leave 2 kids with MIL (mother-in-law)

Go home watch ESPN2

Eat Graham Crackers and Milk (must dip graham crackers in milk before consuming them).

Spend quality time with.............browncafe.com

I'm beat time for bed.
