Everyone deserves a holiday

Some people choose to work on Holidays because they get double time and a half. In Canada that's how it works.

I wasn't able to go home last Thanksgiving and had been in a new city for roughly a month, if I hadn't worked on Thanksgiving I would have had to spend it alone. Working was preferable.

My husband is getting time and a half for working on thanksgiving. And for black Friday. So we will have Thanksgiving on Wednesday. And on Thanksgiving we will record the parade So we can watch it as a family with leftovers and pie. And we don't mind it being like this because it doesn't matter when you celebrate the actual day as long as we do it together.

Im working thanksgiving afternoon to late night, but im glad its me and not someone else.

Unless your trying to avoid your family all together...

*when you don't celebrate Thanksgiving*

Does online shopping count? Lmao

The people scheduled to work that day will work regardless of whether you decided to shop that day.

I just wish we hadn't lost our values when it comes to holidays. When I was little Black Friday was "SO MUCH FUN" but now if I even want some sort of deal I have to go at 3pm on fucking thanksgiving. No way. It'S getting bad. Open at midnight like what it used to be

I really should read other comments before i post the same kind of thing everyone else has. screw it ima do it anyway.
Have you considered that many of these people work barely above minimum wage and working on a holiday is a huge boost to their paychecks?

But then, they work for nothing and get bored, they got to work for nothing? I'd rather go shopping to show some support! :D
