Re: It kind of makes me sick
Glad I'll never have to do that again! It's kind of a right of passage though...All of my friends did it during high school! When I worked there I was at JCrew at 3 or 4AM Black Friday.

Re: It kind of makes me sick
I feel bad for the people who had to work today- the supermarkets and Kmart were open
not for those who have to work tomorrow- I have done it and it's part of working retail- I used to work 9am to 9pm on black friday and it was kind of fun
( esp since I made comission!)

I agree retail is a right of passage. The ache feet and callouses (sp) from the stupid shoes make us stronger!

Re: It kind of makes me sick
I worked at KB toys for 2 Black Fridays. This was when I was a teenager before I was really tainted on the idea of crowds. It was tough but looking back it wasnt that bad, I agree with the rite of passage idea.
