No Christmas at Tesla. ******Updated*****

After verbally and by email saying we had Christmas off got a text today that we are running production on Christmas.

So everyone required to run or support the line just lost Christmas. Line workers, operations, maintenance, etc... all just got a promise broken. Plans with family. Sorry some high up dickhead decided to screw workers at Tesla.

It's crap. Probably illegal in some way (I know labor law says there are no official labor holidays in California, but breaking verbal and written promises can't be allowed).

*************Update 12/21/18************

So, a couple days ago management suddenly changed their mind and Christmas Eve and Day are now optional work days.

I waited to update my post here once I was confident that they wouldn't change their minds again.

I'm happy to get to spend Christmas with my family. Would have been nice to have more consistency. The frustration of the situation was gnarly.

In the future I'm going to be not so trusting of the promises they make when it comes to things like this. I'll make sure I don't get non-refundable tickets for instance.

I appreciate your comments on the situation. Hope you all have a Merry Christmas/Happy Holidays!
