for me, it's great so i can share my left over dinner with my friends. we usually bring something what we have prepared so even we didn't visit each other places, we can still taste what each other have had...

I don't like it, but I think it is a waste if I take a vacation day for it. A lot of people will take that day off and it will be like it is a holiday for you with everyone gone.

I love "working" the day after Thanksgiving. If gives me an excuse to get out of the in-laws place for a while and nobody ever really gets much of anything done that day anyway, so it's usually really relaxed. I feel bad for my brother though...he works retail and has to deal with the Black Friday ridiculousness.

I learned long ago not to work the day after Thanksgiving. I dunno...I guess I can't function too well when it's practically a ghosttown at work. Not to mention, most everyone else is off on that day and it's kind of a bummer to be the only one working. This will be the first 'day after' I've worked in many years, but it won't be a long day for me...just finish up some stuff, tie up loose ends, etc. as this will be my last day at my current job - starting my new one Monday.

LOL. We get the day before off and the Friday after. Yippee! We also get the Friday off but Wednesday is a nice surprise.

I would hate to have to work the day after Thanksgiving. I want to spend time with my family and friends. I think its great that you have a sunny disposition about it though!

I am staying in town & have to work Friday. I don't like that I have to come in early, but it's not too bad because I am off the following week. It also limits how much you can drink with your turkey..

I wish I didn't have to work the day after but at my job everyone has to work the day after. I always volunteer for the opening shift because it is so crazy busy that time flies and before you know it you are back at home sleeping!!

I take off the Friday after so I can hit the big sales. Plus I can eat my own leftovers all day long.

For me it sucks. I can't believe I have to work. The government is so cruel.
