Let em shop, wont stop my Turkey consumption

I would tell them you were trampled by a bunch of Wu Tang fans.

Besides visiting my mothers for the customary turkey day visit, I don't think I ever leave the house on that day or the next.


Im still traumatized from years of working retail. I would never shop on Black Friday.

I think it's understood that when you work retail, there's a possibility of working on some holidays.

I worked retail back in the day and had to work some major holidays. I didn't bitch about it. I did my time and a half and enjoyed the extra hours on my paycheck. Not sure what your complaint is.


It's gone from working some holidays to working some really fucking bizarre hours on holidays. Who the fuck is going to be shopping at 11pm on Thanksgiving night? And for what? To save 5 bucks on a 500 dollar tv? Trust me, if the shoppers actually paid attention to how much these "sales" are giving, they would go fuck it and stay in bed.

My wife works retail (Sears,) and she's working 10pm to 4am Thursday night into Friday, and back at 3pm to midnight on Friday. Yeah, its only one day, but talk about fucking up holiday plans.

If you loved your wife, you would get a better job and support your family well enough to make sure she would only have to work the cushiest of jobs - and that would be only if she grows bored of daily spa treatments.

Good on you for being able to laugh at a joke. 83% of the board would have gone ballistic if that comment was directed at them.



Life it too short not to laugh at things that are funny. Laugh at the Funny ha-ha's, not the funny "uh-ohs" in life.
