Black Thursday: Thanksgiving in the Consumer Wasteland

[backscatter712]

3. If I was working retail, I'd be at my most dickish and surly working Thanksgiving and Black Friday.

Seriously. Within the rules of employment, as much as I can get away with without being called out or getting in trouble, I'd be rude, snippy, passive-aggressive, and give the slowest and most incompetent service possible while still keeping my job.

Because the nice, decent people of the world don't go shopping on Thanksgiving day. And would be seriously considering sitting out Black Friday.

Only the dickweeds, selfish scumfucks and hedonistic freaks would go shopping on Thanksgiving, and I have no respect for them. They're the ones who camp out for days, get in brawls over the best bargains, get aggressive and nasty with other customers and the workers, and they're enablers for this new trend of forcing retail workers to work holidays.
