Hooray, working retail over the holidays! I'm working six days straight, from Friday right up to the Uncanny X-Mas on Thursday, and then I go right back in on Friday.

(The reason they call the 26th "Boxing Day" is because us register monkeys feel like we've been ten rounds with the Champ by the time we go home.)Most of these have been closing

The only thing I could think to make it worse, is working in a mall or other place that pipes in music... and having to hear the Christmas music continuously played from Black Friday through Christmas Day.

I used to work in a Hallmark store in a mall and kinda got sick of christmas from working there. This was exacerbated by the fact that we put out the ornaments in AUGUST!

The demand for those Hallmark yearly ornaments is so high though, if you don't buy them in August, you don't get one..

My grandparents started that tradition when their first grandkid was born, so I've heard all about the horrors of trying to get one of those if you forgot to order in August.

Our mall, thankfully, Does Not Play Music.
