Boxing Day is not a stat so some companies will just get 26th off for the Christmas that's on the Sunday.

Since we're on the subject of Boxing Day and Christmas, I hope this year's Boxing Day Sales are better than last year's.

the last few year's BD sales have all been a joke.
I'm looking forward to doing US online shopping with Black Friday instead

Boxing day sales have been weak for the longest time. They used to be awesome when I was a little kid.

i'm getting 2 days off in lieu of xmas/boxing day. i also booked off the 3 days prior to this so i have 9 days off
also, i'll probably volunteer to work xmas day since it's a super stat and i would get paid almost triple-time.
