(yes, that was a while back) the last week or so before Christmas we would open an hour early (9 AM) and close an hour later (10 PM) to accomodate Christmas shopping. When I finally left that job we were opening at 8 AM and staying open until 11 PM or midnight almost all the time between Thanksgiving and Christmas. Christmas day was just a blip in between the madness of Christmas Eve and the insanity of the day after Christmas sales.

I'm so glad I don't do that anymore.
When I posted on my LJ about getting a second job, meaning Disneyland, my mom suggested that the larger retailers paid better. I told her there was no way I was working retail on Black Friday.
