@Hoigwai Moving here from the UK certainly changed Christmas for me. Even before that I was sometimes on-call. For most of my time here it's only NYD that's been a guaranteed day off (one year I even had a job interview on Christmas Day... perhaps they were testing me ?). Now I'm focused more on the Hindu calendar, with a significant day tomorrow, New Year has felt less like the main event. Meaning really is something we give, and something we need to agree on to share, I guess.
