I love shopping on Black Friday. I think it is so exciting!

I am always looking for a good deal though. I get this from Dad - he has been printing out the pre-sales ads for Friday all week long!

We'll be in Penn. though the people their arent as violent.

Re: Another NWR thread: Friday sales

no shopping for me- I have no patience for crowds and craziness . . . I am going to my FBIL and FSIL's house to help decorate the house for X-mas and spend time with my future nieces and nephew

Re: Another NWR thread: Friday sales

Yeah May! Everyone seems to go shopping whether or not they go to a 'Black Friday' only sale store or just general shopping. Target had a comercial for a wake up call so you can get to there 6am sale!!!

I laugh now Friday I will be wanting a new profession, which happens once a year to confirm I am crazy to sortof like retail.

Re: Another NWR thread: Friday sales

I hate shopping when there are a lot of people at the store, I cant concentrate (I usually end up kicking someone's hills, or I hit people with my bags 'by accident')

I dont think I have enough patience even if you pay me...
honestly, I am that way about my job thats why I know I am doing the right thing by quitting and starting a new job... just feels like the right time to move on....

I'll even throw in some pie!!!

Some days at my job are worse than others...I love most of my co-workers and all of my regular customers... But then those other people come in. And then Bam its the worst day in the world...

I need a sign- If you can't say something nice today don't come in!

Re: Another NWR thread: Friday sales

I hear you, sometimes you think you heard everything and bam

you get surprised... like few months ago I had a client blame me for not flying to Germany because I didnt remind her to check if her passport was valid

I guess everyone can have a bad day and sometimes you just want to lash out on somebody

Re: Another NWR thread: Friday sales

Oh Yeah! Sometimes it sucks working with the public. But then there are all those really great people that make it more than worth it. Like today... One of my teenage customers has been going through cancer treatments. She came in stopped right when she saw me and yelled 'I can buy hair clips!'
