'When Christmas Goes to Work' is not another sweet holiday storybook. It’s a darkly funny, painfully honest look at Christmas from the people who work while everyone else is 'relaxing'.Doctors and nurses, police officers and firefighters, couriers and janitors, hairdressers and priests, psychiatrists and healers, rich and poor pensioners, even an astronaut and a funeral home director - each chapter shows how the holidays really look from their side of the counter, the uniform, or the night shift.Inside you’ll find:- short, cinematic scenes from Christmas Eve in different professions; - sharp jokes and one‑liners with a good dose of black humour; - aphorisms that hit harder than any greeting card; - 'letters to Santa' written by exhausted adults, not children; - honest wishes for the reader - without fake positivity.This book is for you if:- you’ve ever spent Christmas on shift, on call, or in uniform; - you feel out of place at the 'perfect' family table; - you secretly prefer honesty with humour to shiny lies with glitter.Not a book about perfect holidays. A book about the people who keep the world running while the fairy lights are on.
