I gotta wonder if we've lost Thanksgiving to the market, and sales.
Seems like Walmart went straight from Halloween to Christmas, without skipping a beat.
And how could anyone miss out on those Thanksgiving day sales.
Now two cities here in my area are having Christmas parades before Thanksgiving, one actually ending in a fireworks display.
Hell of a thing.
I dunno, I kind of like a traditional Thanksgiving with family.

So many people have work the holidays doing various service work and I think they deserve some thanks too.
But no one should have to work a holiday just because someone's profit margin demands it.
I hate seeing someone working in a convenient store on Thanksgiving or Christmas.

And they still talked to you? OMG!
Ours is so steeped in what is required. The roles are clearly defined. There is a standard set that must be maintained. I won't go into it. If anything, I help set the bar.

I've been in Florida my whole life, but I remember when I will in high school that around now it would have been cold outside; now the weather is either hot, cool, or rainy. I miss the cold days and being able to stay home wrapped up in a throw or blanket with hot cocoa and a good show on TV. With the smell of the fresh Christmas tree. Now, I work in retail and work most holidays so I don't get the days before or after a major holiday off. I can't wait to finish school so I can get a job where I don't have to work every holiday.
