    So who's still working then? Many working over the holidays or even at Christmas itself?

    Just winding down here, got to rebuild a new machine which is basically triggering a build and wandering off for an hour, 4 or 5 times over.

    This will be the first year ever where I haven't taken a day off.

    I'm not going to ruin it now.

      I'm in. Every billable day I can for me. Got a 6 month bench slot to recover from.

            Last day of the year today. Would preferred to have continued working as I have had 4 months of no contracts this year but the office closes end of today until 4 Jan and this applies to contractors too.

              I'm in, until four then off until 4/01 (forced closure ). Might as well work seeing as there's naff all to do, especially now PH has took most of my favourite full Italian films down*

              Got a bit of tiling to do then will carry on writing my play

              * of course all in the line of learning some idiomatic Italian and an insight into what Italian ladies like!

                  Still working here (does WFH count?).

                  Like others, had a long spell benched over the summer and this is a short contract (3M) so trying to invoice as much as possible.

                  That said, finishing today but will likely be logging back on at least part of next week.

                    Finished last Thursday. Back to work 4th January. First task - find out why the XML is failing the ZUGFeRD 2.0 validations...

                    Oh, I have to return client laptop and my badge sometime before new year. Issue my last invoice. Send accounts to accountant.
