To make extra money: Working between Christmas and New Year's can be a way to earn extra money or to pay off holiday expenses. Many people who work in retail or hospitality are paid time and a half or double time for working on holidays, which can significantly increase their earnings.
To enjoy the distraction: For some people, working between Christmas and New Year's is a way to avoid the stress of holiday shopping and visiting with family and friends. Working can provide a sense of routine and structure during a time of year that can be chaotic and overwhelming.
@amanda_silmon How about a βtravel aloneβ experience ??
Of course, there are also some drawbacks to working between Christmas and New Year's. For example, it can be difficult to spend time with family and friends, and it can be hard to stay motivated when everyone else is on vacation. Additionally, those who work in retail or hospitality may be exposed to long hours, difficult customers, and a high-pressure work environment.
@brandon_linn Definitely. Also, a great salute and a huge bow to the people who work even during Christmas and New year. Like our responsible doctors, nurse, police, army ...
@brandon_linn definitely important to have some family time where possible. Time can never be reclaimed. Spend it with family were possible
To meet deadlines: Some businesses have deadlines that they must meet before the new year, such as taxes or year-end financial reports. This can require employees to work overtime or on weekends to get the work done.
Yes, I want to.

Taking time off, to spend it with family and friends, but will definitely work on some urgent matters in between :D
