Well, well, well. Here it is. Another day after thanksgiving and I actuallly made it home alive. The cars, the traffic, the people. Oh my god!!! Year after year, it always surprises me. I never really fathomed how crazy it could get until I had my first experince of it a few years back.
Oh yeah, I remember it like it was yesterday. Waking up way before the butt crack of dawn just to hear people scream over the latest gizmos and gadgets, clothing, and toys. I don't ever( in a million years) want to go back into retail. This part of the year gives me the creeps. Mainly because, well, some people just turn down right mean when it comes to the holiday sales routine. Not only are they mean to the poor associates (my god have mercy on your soul) but also to each other.
I thought the holidays were supposed to bring people together. Of I forgot, they do, just not in the "made for T.V. way" that we normally see. Nevertheless, I hope everyone had (and are still having) a safe holiday. These days can be really hectic, so I encourage everyone to be safe and watch the idiot(s) that try to race you to the closes parking space.
Oh yeah, and to anyone who has the fortune of working in retail. I'm sorry. I'm really really sorry. I feel your pain. And to everyone else. Please be kind to the sales associates, cause in all honestly, they don't even want to be there.
