I have been in this retail business for 9 Holiday Seasons; and I work every day including weekends and nights (used to work in the Warehouse 80-100 hours a week) any way - I really hate christmas, because I am tired and overworked and everyone is really mean and nasty (I exagerate) - but when I think of it my feet hurt and I get stressed. But she loves it loves it loves it loves it and well did I mention she is jewish...it just don't make no sense. Anyway - I gots to get back Santa is looking at me funny; if I don't get on these toys for all the boys and girls I am afraid he may fire me.
