When a partner works on a day that the corporation deems a holiday (which is most of the appropriate ones: Christmas, Thanksgiving, etc), he or she gets paid time and a half. I assume that it's a compensation for having to work on a day one would typically spend with family.
I believe compensation is also appropriate for anyone working on a day where the crowds are larger than a store is used to, and a partner has to work harder, faster, and possibly longer than they usually would.
To make a long story short: Game days should get time and a half pay. Just sayin'.
Today was actually pretty good--it was never HOLYSHITWE'REGONNADIE busy, just Fairly Bustling at times. At other times, it was dead enough to get a lot of prep and cleaning done, which will no doubt make closing way easier for M and JC.
The highlight of the day was Ryan's visit after he got off work. I had mentioned yesterday that I seemed to be the only one at work without a black hoodie ready to throw on when it got cold. It wasn't a complaint, just a statement. Well, after get clocked out, he went and bought me one, and came by to drop it off for me.
Yes, he really is the best ever. And he's all mine, no matter what the cat says.
*I totally spelled that "Asterix" the first time and immediately searched for the internet and will be watching this as soon as I finish writing this entry. Eeee!
