POSITIVELY SPEAKING - December 2019

Christmas_card_pic.jpg

Merry Christmas to you and yours! There's no better reason for the season than to celebrate the birth of Christ.
Christmas falls on a Wednesday, which makes this year more challenging than most to accommodate time off for Christmas and Christmas Eve. We will work regular hours Monday, dismiss early on Tuesday for Christmas Eve, and resume regular hours on Thursday and Friday. You will receive 4 hours of Holiday pay on Tuesday and all day on Wednesday. The following week, we will be closed only for New Year's Day, also a paid holiday.

 Lastly, take a moment to appreciate those around you this Christmas season. As I get older, I notice more and more every day how things can literally change in a heartbeat. A smile, a hug, or a few kind words could be all it takes to make someone's Christmas.

Merry
Christmas!
