And there they lay I damn me eyes

I'm definitely working on Thanksgiving. I work in a hospital, and any holiday I work, I get paid double-time and a half per hour rather than regular pay. Since I work midnights, I'm grateful that the company that owns my hospital considers the day after Thanksgiving a holiday as well, so I'm working 12 hours with double-time and a half. Pretty shnazzy, right?
I will be working on maintaining my low carb diet. Much turkey flesh will be consumed.

Nope. I work in a potato chip factory, so no need to work. I love being out of the service industry.

This is my first year not working on the holiday. As a brit living in America it never really bothered me to have to work it, but I am excited to get to spend the day with my fiancé and his family

Hell no. I'm suppose to work the day after, but I'm currently in the middle of working 12 days straight, so I think I'll take that friday off for a nice 4 day weekend.

I always find it interesting that people don't like the fact that people in customer service jobs such as walmarts or best buys have to work on Thanksgiving. while I agree they shouldn't. I also agree that nobody should have to work thanksgiving. This trend with retail has only started the past couple of years. Everyone forgets that there are many other professions that have to work on thanksgiving. Take public service people, like firefighters, cops, or doctors. Think about the nurses in hospitals, or in retirement homes that have to be working on thanksgiving. Heck my dad had a job a couple of years ago where he deliverd prescription drugs to most of Northern Ohio hospitals and retirement homes. Soldiers, Airmen, marines and sailors all have to work on Thanksgiving as well.
Oddly though the only profession that people have a problem with working on thanksgiving is people in retail.
