I would loose the double time and a half from working Xmas Eve, and only get a straight 8. Just for working a holiday, I would get $340 before taxes. Yeah, all that extra $ would be awesome. But I was really looking forward to spending Xmas Day with my family, since I've got 3 houses we go to on that day. I was OK with working 8 hours Xmas Day, but since they want me to work 12 hours on Xmas day, that's what's really pissing me off!
That and they know that I don't call in sick, period. The only time I called in was when my wife went into labor, and when the doctor told me I couldn't go to work for strep throat. So, in 7 years, I've called in 2 times!
