Exactly... I'm off Dec 25-Jan 1st this year; I plan my days off for me, it's up to families to make sure they have a back up plan. All families are given the days off notice when they interview & the updated first week of January for the ENTIRE next year... no reason they can't plan when they have the year in advance.
