I worked. Got 2.5x pay (time and a half + 8 hours holiday bonus), but, I earned every penny, because it was nuts. We're always short staffed on the weekends (and then people inevitably call-in sick, like they always do, making it worse), the copier was broken and couldn't be fixed until today (which is particularly bad when you run out of documentation forms that you need for the State and can't make more), we were deluged with Easter visitors and gifts for the residents (all of which had to be screened/sanitized), one of the residents died, etc. I was pretty frazzled by the end of my shift and almost walked out at one point, when I was expected to do too many tasks simultaneously, while others were goldbricking, but, I held the line and did what had to be done.
