Traditionally I always took my birthday off but in recent years things like COVID-19 have come in the way.

I really don't care. Students often give me gifts on my birthday, so it's actually a bonus.

When I was in university, I worked for a liquor store. My manager gave me the day off on my birthday one year, but didn't reschedule my hours, so I ended up losing money because of it. Wasn't really worth it.

Working on my birthday has never bothered me when working. I "celebrated" whenever I was off that week as a belated birthday.

I don't mind working on my birthday. It's gotten to the point where it's just another ordinary day for me.

I prefer it, but can work my birthday, knowing that it tends to be either at the start of Labor Day weekend or the week before said weekend. Some jobs, like mine, like to block out those weekends for requesting days off. Again, it would be nice to have my birthday off, but I have no delusion nor expectation about that ever happening unless my next book gets out soon and sells super well (we'll see).

But like, what if your co-workers planning a surprise bday party for you? You could have celebrated twice, at work and after work.

Feels pointless taking day off for bday.

Tbh, I dont even know if they know. So. Ill probably only celebrate once either way. Plus, I can stay home and eat cake. Also, while I can take days off, it usually feels pointless to do so. And I end up saving most of them for when I take a vacation. So, I dont mind having a reason to take a day off to relax. Plus, Ill usually be getting phone calls all day...

None of my coworkers at any of the places where I've worked have thrown me a bday party; that's why I usually try to take a day off. My husband's coworkers have thrown bday parties for him but I've never received that honor; so I have no idea what it's like to get celebrated twice.

I never bothered with taking time off for my birthday. Meh, if I'm going to take a day, I'll take a long weekend.

I usually try to. I have worked it in the past.
I try hard to get loved ones birthdays off work. The past couple years I've used a personal day on like my girlfriend's birthday.

I am one of those people that don't tend to celebrate their own birthday, so if I have to work I have to work. I have had bosses in the past give it to me as a day off, but I never ask for it. Really pisses the wife off sometimes though, she likes to celebrate birthdays.

Both of these for me. I would plan birthday dinners for my friends but I would not bother for my own birthday. To me, it is just another day.
