Still up working over here. Gotta drive down to Houston at some point tomorrow.
I was going to make a run to Houston yesterday but decided against it. I'm a lot closer though. Pretty good haul for you.

Here's how my Monday is going! .. LOL
"'Twas the Monday before Christmas, and all through my Body, No Motivation was stirring, not even an ounce. Ready for the day to end, and the Holidays to begin."
That's pretty good.
Our office is closed for the last 2 weeks of the year, so I'm not motivated to do much either.
Why Thank you, Thank you very much

I get done in 1.5 hours. Then going with my father for the traditional X-Mas Eve shopping trip.

We're either closing at 12N CST or 3CST
I'm trying to convince everyone we need to just leave at 10:00 but no one is biting. -

Because Our boss is in Des Moines IA, and we are following the other department.
So what ever they decide and those are the times we talked about. -
We close to patients at 1 PM, but to leave early, staff have to take vacation or unpaid time off.

Not really - management I see has three choices, perhaps four.
- close at 1 PM - pay only for worked hours, employees can stay and work a full typical day
- close at 1 PM - allow people to use vacation time to keep paycheck at typical work hours
- Close at 1 PM - send everyone home, pay everyone 4 hours out of the company pocket
- close at 1 PM - send everyone home, people only paid for punched in time.
80% of our staff is hourly. If they were more salary, this wouldn't be an issue, just close at 1 PM and not worry about it. But hourly really changes things.
I overheard part of a conversation about this - there was discussion on just closing and sending everyone home.. but the idea of paying that much free time (option 3) was considered undesirable I'm assuming, since that is not the route they went. Some would say they had compassion for those to need the money, so they allow people to stay and get paid the whole day - of course, even though they are assigned things to do - we all know it won't happen.

@Dashrender 3 is the right answer.

huh, this ended up being a lot lower than I expected.
72 people * $15/hr average * 4 hours = $4,320 OK yeah, this it likely something my company could swallow without an issue.
