Poor people gotta eat I guess...
Seriously though: do none of these places close down for Xmas?

Well, technically I am at work, so, you know.
But when I worked in an office, we would end halfday usually Dec 24, be off 25/26 and the next two or three days, depending on how the Christmas fell, would be staggered between the staff.
4am like every day cause nobody cares about whatever the hell they call the day after Christmas. Manager was late so nothing was ready when I came in, two hours later the dude supposed to come in called out, then when I was supposed to get off the person on the schedule called out cause **** her and she never shows up anyway. And we were kind sorta busy so the day after Christmas was mildly ****ed up.

Welcome to America.
