New Year's Day.

Schuyler · 17/11/2018 13:43

New Year’s Day as I don’t usually do anything on that day.

Sidge · 17/11/2018 13:43

New Year’s Day

Oopsy41 · 17/11/2018 13:44

New years day

tissuesosoft · 17/11/2018 13:44

New Years Day definitely.

RaininSummer · 17/11/2018 13:44

New year's s day.

New Year's Day!

Used to work in a team with a fair few young people (early twenties). Although I was the same age I'd never go out NYE as it's so overrated and expensive. Someone had to work NYE so I'd always volunteer so I wouldn't need to work Boxing Day!

New year's day. I don't care about working then, but I hate working boxing day.

DustyMaiden · 17/11/2018 13:46

New Year’s Day, I don’t drink.

New years day!xx

Rockbird · 17/11/2018 13:55

NYD. Can't stand it. Love Boxing Day.

arranfan · 17/11/2018 14:19

I'd happily work both.

ThanksItHasPockets · 17/11/2018 14:39

NYD. I never go out on NYE.

Kewqueue · 17/11/2018 14:41

Boxing day. I always feel like getting out of the house on BD and no-one can be bothered. NYD you can have a lie in from the late night before.

Norma27 · 17/11/2018 15:07

New Year’s Day for me too definitely. And New Year’s Eve doesn’t bother me either. I would gladly do both so others could go out and enjoy it.
I do love Christmas Day and Boxing Day off tho. I used to work Boxing Day quite often tho.

insancerre · 17/11/2018 15:11

New years day
Then I would have an excuse to go to bed on new years eve and not have to join in with all the new years bollocks

Babybearsporij · 17/11/2018 15:12

New Years day, but I'm not bothered really. I'm working both this xmas / nye though!

Givemeallyourcucumber · 17/11/2018 15:12

New Year's Day.

Stephisaur · 17/11/2018 15:14

I’m going against the grain here. I’d rather work Boxing Day.

NYE is a late night so I like my New Years Day lie in!

EmeryisntthenewWenger · 17/11/2018 15:17

New Years Day and New Years Eve if it meant I didn’t have to work Boxing Day

AwfulSomething · 17/11/2018 15:20

Boxing day, couldn't care less about Christmas. I love New Years Eve. Am working the lot.

Fatted · 17/11/2018 15:24

This year is the first time in about 13 years I'mwork shifts and won't have to work one of the bank holidays. I always preferred working new years day.

The good news is DH is on call from Xmas eve for the week. Hmm
