Oh, Christ. Now I not only have to put up with Black Friday, but Cyber Monday, as well? Why don’t we name each and every one of the 28 shopping days between Thanksgiving and Christmas? And we can have different discounts for each day.

is good for the floorwalkers and salespeople who have to deal with them at the stores.
Why? Because I am one of those salespeople, and I got a wake-up call about how lousy Black Friday can be for the people behind the counter. Customers pitching a b*tch unnecessarily because they feel they can throw their weight around and get someone fired. These people are out of their minds. Not all customers, understand.

Let them stay online and b*tch about the software.
