I said Yes.
I’m not currently working, but I was in the brokerage industry. Since the market is open on the day after Thanksgiving due to regulations, we had to have about 1/2 the crew in. I generally offered to not take the day off since I don’t travel for TG. Those who did take the day of had to use PTO.
Posting this from work. Granted, everyone else is gone as it’s a Holiday for my company, but I have to be here.
There are folks in Data Centers all over the country.
I’m at work now. I work in IT operations, so we are 24/7/365. I got Thanksgiving off so I work tonight – I’ll also work Christmas, since I had yesterday off. However it’s slow, so I’m on the Dope.
Financial services. The market rarely sleeps. Though I can’t complain too much, as I had taken Monday-Wednesday off, and knew Friday was going to be slow due to the early close at the NYSE.
Another financial services employee. Got stuck at work for the full ten hour shift even though we were painfully slow. I don’t think there was anyone at work with the authority to send people home.
It’s a holiday for me, but I got bored. So I’m processing data and sending it off for loading. Hey, businesses! Look out! Your credit reports are being updated! 
I’m a Team Leader for a large cleaning company. I usually volunteer to work the Friday after Thanksgiving, but decided this year not to so I could have a 4 day weekend!
I’m not working Christmas Eve or Christmas Day,either. I’ll be working the day after Christmas, but it’ll just be a 3-4 hour day.
I’ll be off from New Year’s Eve until January 4th. My first New Year’s off since I started working for the company. Planning on getting totally blitzed this time around!
Yup, financial services here, too. I had taken a vacation day yesterday, but probably half of our staff were in the office to make sure that all of our clients had coverage. I’ve worked the day after Thanksgiving before and it’s usually really slow; a pretty good day to work, honestly, since you can get in a little late, leave a little early, have a super easy commute each way, and generally catch up on anything you’re behind on.
I’m an artist and work at home. I work every single day of my life.
Bank IT guy here… The mainframes get cranked up to about 6 million financial transactions per second to handle all of those Black Friday credit card and debit card sales. Someone has to be on hand to make sure it all works right.
I support those people. At least this year, I was able to have the day off, but am on 24/7 call in case things go badly.
Nope. I’ve never worked on either Black Friday or Thanksgiving.
I own a retail store. You’d better believe I work the day after Thanksgiving!
I work for an electric company so technically, we never close. However, office people like myself are given the day off. The people that do have to work get paid double.
Daughter had Thanksgiving Day itself off, which is unusual as she is a newbie at her place of employment, but she had to work on Friday. Mr. Sali took a whole weeks vacation as he has to use it up before the end of the year (he’ll be loitering around the house for most of December, pre-Christmas, Christmas, post-Christmas, and doesn’t go back until after New Years. One of the small perks of stubbornly staying alive and holding onto the same job for decades, he gets first choice of vacation scheduling). I used to love working the day after any holiday, I used to volunteer and let the family types stay home. I was single, living with my parents, and flew out the door the day after Thanksgiving to catch up on work at the nearly empty office. That saved my sanity, it did.
