As I write this, I'm one of two people in the office. The other is a very bored helpdesk technician with no calls to take.
I think this is prime-time for network admins. With (practically) nobody on the network, this is one of the few times in a year when you can do maintenance on production systems in the middle of the day. If an e-mail server is down for five minutes to do a reboot after a patch, who's to know? Scheduled SQL jobs generally run overnight, and with noone to query the database, it's all mine.
Some habits die hard, though, and Christmas morning found me at the data center taking down a file server to replace parts that were in pre-failure. Nothing like a little pre-dawn preventive maintenance.
Have a holly-jolly maintenance time, all!
