We never miss or postpone birthdays at our house! I'd celebrate with co-workers during the day but would definitely look forward to a cozy family dinner that evening...the weekend is another story!!
Of all the years I worked, I never took my birthday off. But, I know many people do to celebrate. Thanks for letting all of us celebrate with you!!
With my birthday close to Christmas...I like to try to take the day off to play! I am having a hard time getting my basement cleaned today...wonder why LOL!
I'm a stay-at-home-mum, so I hang out at home with my adorable "co-worker". (My 4 year old son.)
We celebrate in the evening with a home-cooked meal or a special restaurant treat.
I'm a school teacher and it is difficult to take the day off. I generally celebrate with my co-workers and wait to the weekend!
bithday evening with my honey and wait for the weekend for celebrations with my friends
No special arrangements but most often, my co-workers surprise me with celebrations and goodies.
Well, I don't work...so I just celebrate with friends when all my worker bee buddies are available. It doesn't have to be on my birthday.....it's always fun, no matter when!
We celebrate birthdays on the actual day at our house...no matter what is going on. We may do more stuff on the weekend, but there is always cake and presents on the real day.
I never take my b-day off - we sometimes will celebrate on the weekend though.
I never took the day off...it is much more fun waiting for everyone else to be off work and help me celebrate.
Never took it off when I worked but now...I'm off every day
I am lucky as my birthday is in August and this means holidays, even now that I am adult as I'm a teacher :-).
my birthday is in July, I try to get my vacation this week.
enjoy *~*
I would move my Birthday to the weekend to celebrate with family, but would probably get some cards from co-workers on my actual work day.

Well since I work from home now doesn't matter when my Bday falls! lol.. but when I did work outside my home it was always fun to have bday at work, I would get bday breakfast, lunch and then celebration! Why stay home!! :)
I share it with co-workers and wait for the evening to celebrate. No waiting till the weekend for me! Ha! I LOVE Birthdays!
when the birthday falls on a workday, I take the day off and later in the evening celebrate with family and friends
I usually celebrate with co-workers, but this year I turn 30 on a thursday, so I may take the day off!
I celebrate my birthday with my colleagues at work and with my family in evening.
Scrapbises.
If it's a workday for me, I work without telling anybody it's my birthday. I ignore it when I'm at work. When I get home, my hubby usually takes me out to dinner.
This year, for a change, I am actually taking a week off that happens to include my birthday. Didn't really plan it for that reason, it just happened to fall that way. My birthday is the day before St. Patrick's Day, so it's coming up pretty soon!

Will share it with co-workers but go out for a dinner with family...
Thankfully im a SAHM so i always end up spending it at home with my favourite people :D
like to take it off, go shopping, grab a chocolate shake from Johnny Rockets....take the long way home :)
Wait for weekend!
Celebrate as often and as long as possible - so I would do both.
Since I stay at home, I celebrate my birthday alone during the day :(
Never took my birthday off when I worked. The last group of ladies I worked with made birthdays so special, no one wanted to miss being at work!
I try to take the day off if i can as my sister has the same birthday and we just spend the day together!

I never take the day off, we using wait for the weekend and go out to dinner.
Work??? What's that???
If it falls on a friday, then it's a 3 day weekend for sure! Otherwise we wait until the weekend.
Being a teacher with a birthday in July, I usually have it off. In years past when I had another job, I always went to work and kept my birthday a secret.
I used to take the day off but have worked it the last few years. We usually have a cake at work and then I get another one at home. We usually go out to eat on the weekend.
I'd celebrate with coworkers that day, and family that night or over the weekend!
I wait for the weekend to celebrate.
It usually happens that I have the day off from work, and celebrate my birthday that night.. no delays..
Share it with my co-workers, they always make you have a great day.
We celebrate coworkers' birthdays at work, we celebrate birthdays on the exact day with immediate family, and then again on the weekend with whatever extended family can get together!
I'm a SAHM now, but when I was working outside the home, I still worked & my co-workers would celebrate with me & then we usually waited til the weekend to celebrate with family.
I never took the day off for my birthday, I enjoyed celebrating with my co-workers.
I'm a postponer. :D
I celebrate all day long on my birthday -- at work and at home.
I would go to work and get double celebrations -- home & work!
I never take the day off. Our division at work celebrate's birthdays so that is fun part of the day.
celebrate it at work and home!
I've done both! Just depends on what the plans are, I typically work.
When I used to work outside my home, I used to take in a treat for co-workers on my birthday, then celebrate on the weekend with family.
I wish I can take a day off from work, but it's not important enough for a day off!
If a work day I'll take donuts to work and celebrate there.
I am a stay at home mom. I can't take the day off. Blessings.
Peggy
Usually work it, but then bring treats.
Definitely wait till the weekend to celebrate! I need the FULL weekend to celebrate anyway! :)
Our family usually celebrates "birthday weeks!"
I take the day off, of course!!
Take a half a day. Then you get the best of both worlds.
