“working New Year's Eve isn't the norm if you have the option not to.”
And just to be clear, nobody I’m acquainted with “had the option not to.” New Year’s Eve just generally isn’t considered a paid holiday here.

Among my family and social circles, working New Year's Eve isn't the norm if you have the option not to. Almost all of the people I know who worked on New Year's Eve this year are in retail or the kind of jobs that get no holidays (first responders, doctors, reporters.) My father's big multinational employer issued an order that anyone who worked that week had to do it from home because there weren't going to be enough people coming in to justify the expense of keeping the lights and heat on. -- David J.
