Are you working on Good Friday ?

[IndigoSpritz]

I would have been as I do shifts, but I'm taking a day's leave. Good Friday is my favourite public holiday so I prefer to take the day off if possible. It's a strange one; many shops and small businesses are open as usual (my local butcher will be), even though it's a public holiday. Conversely, many businesses will be closed on Easter Monday and all the big retailers on Easter Sunday. I believe the latter is a legal requirement.

The weather forecast for GF looks favourable too, which helps 🙂.

DH is working Good Friday, Easter Saturday and Easter Monday. Good old NHS. I'm frantically trying to find free things to do for another week before they go back to school to minimise arguments.

Yes, but it's not a holiday in my part of the UK. Easter Monday and Tuesday are the public holiday days.

All my family are off for all of Easter.

Is it Scotland and/or Northern Ireland where GF isn't a public holiday ?

I work in retail and I'm working good Friday and bank holiday Monday. We are also open in Easter Sunday but luckily I've not working it......I hate working in retail!!!!

I work in childcare, closed for the whole long w/e & i've taken Thurs as a hol day as going away. Can't wait

only Easter Monday is a public holiday here . Scotland

N Ireland has Easter Monday and Tuesday as the public holidays, although the bank holidays are still Friday and Monday. If you work in a bank your holidays are all out of sync with everyone else at Easter.

Yes I am off Friday and Monday - can't wait!

Schools are off but I'm working GF and Easter Monday from home through choice. Never been a big thing for us and ds is just back after having first 2 weeks in April off as school holidays. Prefer to keep a couple of days until it's warmer.

Yes. DH is too, but more in a sort of 'just showing my face for an hour' sort of way. His company well let them away with it, but if they don't put in an appearance it's taken as a day out of their holidays.

I usually work Mondays, can do Tuesday next week if I want instead, but may do Monday as at the moment I have no major plans for the weekend. Will see how it suits me.

In Ireland by the way. Monday is a bank holiday here, but Friday isn't.

Yes, night shift.

Then I am working Easter Monday evening.

At work good Friday off Easter Monday as its fallen as a off duty day
We get given our bank holidays in our allowance and i would prefer to use my holidays for a full week holiday.

Yes, in the tourist trade so working all weekend

Yes. Really don’t mind as it’s such a dull bank holiday. Would rather use my annual leave at another time of the year.

I work in childcare and we are closed Friday and Monday. Dh and ds are back to work and school on Monday so I have a completely free day

Yes

DP is. He is part of a team renovating a school (well part of the school). They are pulling 12 hours days to get it done in time for 23rd.

Working all weekend - also in the tourist industry. But finish at 3pm so not too bad,

Neither Friday nor Monday are a public holiday for me -nhs in Scotland

Yes....I am a nurse working the Fri and the Mon. They are part of my usual shift pattern. Had no idea they were both bank hols as always forget.

Yes, I’m working Good Friday and also Saturday, Easter Sunday and the bank holiday Monday. I’m rostered on shift and was denied leave. I work in the media.

O8.00 to 20.30 if nowt goes pearshaped

Yes, I'm working Good Friday and Easter Monday plus it's my working weekend. I'm a care worker. My customers are lovely which makes it a pleasure.

I work in a church, so yes, although a shorter day than usual.
