Ok folks this retail monkey needed a laugh today and got it. Read today's Skin Horse that last panel says it all. We are all hands on deck here at the store and smart phones are flying out the door. In most cases the devices are smarter than the purchasers. If any of you do Black Friday I hope you got some good deals to me this is just another day albeit a twelve hour one. Tired smiles, Jenn.

I call it 'blechh Friday'

I'm too old to fight a ton of aggressive moms, dads, and kids for a discount iPod.

Words may be false and full of art;
Sighs are the natural language of the heart.

you lost 12 hours

A 12 hour day? How did you do that? Are you magic? My day is still 24 hours long, just like every other day. Now I am afraid of you.

FEAR ME.

For my next trick I will make the sun disappear every day.


I wear this crown of thorns
Upon my liar's chair
Full of broken thoughts
I cannot repair

I've heard of this sun you have spoken of, but I believe it is but a myth. From what my sources tell me, it is like the moon on fire. Hogwash. By the way, I think I dislocated my shoulder throwing Thursday's paper. Keep your damn Iphones and Ipads (or at least send me one), I just want an easy day at work.

I used to work in that business...

But I got out after my second black friday. Too hectic and too many jerks pushing and shoving. I know what ya mean by *tired* smiles. Lots of work, but usually a pretty good paycheck at the end of the pay period. Mine (when I was at H.H. Gregg) totaled up to about 110 hoursof overtime (that's not including the 40 hour standard hour week. on one pay period and that was at $8.50 (in 2007-08)

Peace be with you and Blessed be
