Retail dudes, my condolences.

i pity my mam, she's a paramedic… black friday is one of the worst nights/weekends for her...

:) Are we talking about two different black fridays here? The day after the American Thanksgiving holiday (biggest shopping day of the year)?

And yes...my sympathies to anyone working retail.
 
For three years in a row I worked that day at a toy store, it was my second job to help pay off school loans. Remember the Furby craze? That's when I worked there.

Pretty sure my mind has scrubbed itself of the memories of those days. Horrific.
 
ah right, i thought you meant black-eyed-friday… the last working day for most people before xmas, when they drink the same (if not more) than on St Patrick's day...
 
for the retail thing Boxing day over here is the worst, but i have the same thought for both… how the hell can anyone think about moving the next day if they've eaten so much turkey and drank so much????
 
I wish consumers just wouldn't fucking do it. Wal mart is having some blue ray player for $80. But they only have 10 or some shit like that.

You think people are not gonna fight? Groups of people are some of the dumbest motherfuckers on the planet. Consumers are the worst.

I completely agree with this. This is why I never take part in any black friday shopping. What's even worse is when stores (such as Walmart) actually stay open all night the day before (Thanksgiving Day!!!) to get a head start on things. But why do they do it? Because they know the customers will come.
 
The point of black Friday is to even out the accounting books, going from red (in the hole) to black (above expense). It's pretty rock n roll if you think about it: causing riots and pandemonium to achieve prosperity...it worked for GnR!
 
I fucking hate people. I hate my job.

When the day comes I'm going to punch someone in the fucking face if they even look at me funny. People think you're like retarded or something if you are in school and have to work retail. Try and come in and fuck with me...I'll smash your little kids retarded gifts over your fat head.

Fuck this topic sucks. People suck. Fuck.

seriously people just treat us like shit because we work retail, they think we are just as stupid as the guy with down syndrome working at McDonald's.

i actually requested black Friday off this year. But i did have to exchange for Christmas/new years holidays. probably going to be just as bad or worse.

The store won't let anyone take BF off. So I have to work like some 12 hour bullshit or whatever and then I get to clean up after all the fuckin slobs that don't know how to fuckin clean up after themselves or their ugly piece of shit kids.

I can't wait to get another job.
 
I can't think of ANY reason that I would need to be at the store at 6:00am to get that great deal. Fuck Black Friday... I'd rather spend more and get my sleep in. That's how I will help those that need to work - I will stay the fuck home.

I worked retail for years... and I am SORRY FOR ANYONE WHO HAS TO WORK! :(

You're right - people are stupid but fucking forget it on this day... its like some cosmic realignment or some shit and people turn into selfish, ignorant fucking cretins.

Stab as many people as you can.
