Back in October, I already submitted a request to have either
Morning shift, or the day off, so that I can happily attend the
celebration.
Then, last Saturday, the roster was finally released and they're
putting me on Night shift on that day!!
And, night shifts are close to
impossible to switch with anyone. 
So, we have a few options now :
Option 1 : Forget Missy Rhonda and go ahead with the feast;
Option 2 : Hold the feast on either Sat, 3 Dec or Sun, 4 Dec;
Option 3 : Choose a date nearer Christmas so we can have a double
celebration! 
So, how??
Folks, I'm terribly terribly sorry.
I've been looking forward to our outing this Sunday for the longest
time!
