just checked the rotas fro xmas and new year and as i work ona friday everyweek start at 4pm and finish at 7am sat morning im on shift christmas eve and new years eve i have never not been with my babies on thses dates and im really upset : ( but on the other hand the guy that i work with is severly autistic and learning difficultis will have me with him and not on his own on xmas eve..which then makes me feel guilty for not wanting to be there with him .. although i do becaus ei hate the thought of some agency worker being with him who he hardly knows .... not sure if this makes sence lol

Oh bless ya hun Sounds like you are stuck between a rock and a hard place **hugs** xx

i suppose at least the kids can spend xmas eve with there dad and i have them all xmas day and boxing day ..and i will save my liver by not partying new years eve

aww bless you i can understand what you are saying, difficult situation but at least your not working all; xmas day!! xxxxx

Awww sweetheart, what a lovely job you do.

It is so lovely of you to think of this guy and make sure that he isnt alone. You should be really proud of yourself.

Your kiddies will be asleep most of the time anyway, so just look forward to Xmas day with them xx

awww can understand why you are upset.

they tried to get my oh to work christmas day, said hell know - this will be Adams first xmas x

i know they wont mind but i mind.. i suppose its good that it isnt htere first xmas as i would prob try and swap a shift .. but i do feel i should be there with him as he has no family just us staff and he is soo sweet x

Do you think that maybe somebody would swap one of the shifts with you, so you are only doing one x
