Light 'em up!
Santa's sleigh broke down on Christmas Eve so he had to have UPS help him deliver what he had left.

You could also go out to smoke crack and say the same thing.

ARTICLE 40. AIR OPERATION
Preamble
In order for the Employer, the Union and the employees to further benefit
from the expanding air operations, the following Sections shall
supersede language on the same subjects in the Supplements, Riders
and Addenda, unless specifically stated otherwise in this Article.
(j) Holiday Work
When it is necessary to provide air service on holidays, the following
procedure shall be used:
(1) The Employer shall offer this work in seniority order to full
time air drivers who have worked at least one (1) day that week
before offering it to part-time air drivers.
(2) When the scheduling needs cannot be met using the above provision,
the Employer shall have the right to force part-time air drivers
and then full-time air drivers to work starting in reverse order of seniority.
If after exhausting the above steps scheduling needs are still not
met, the Employer shall offer the work in seniority order within the
package driver classification. If more drivers are still needed the
reverse seniority order concept will be used for package drivers.
Package car drivers who work on a holiday may make a written
request for an eight (8) hour guarantee. Such written request shall be
made the last work day prior to the holiday. All time worked by these
drivers on a holiday will be paid at the Supplemental holiday rate.

Clean up your location. Organize supplies. Package car lineup. Set up preload for the next day.

The only time I would even consider working on Christmas day would be in the aftermath of some sort of disaster ...like an earthquake or horrific ice storm...that UPS had no realistic way of anticipating or coping with. Failure to plan on the company's part does not qualify.
This year we had an excellent peak and the key decision point was having us all come in on Sunday the 20th. That got us clean and gave us a fighting chance to stay ahead of the rush for the rest of the week. The result was that every driver in our building was done and on the way home by 6:30 or 7:00 last night.
Merry Christmas!
