Feels.

Back in high school I did an Xmas job gift-wrapping at Myers. I never want to work retail xmas again and while it was long time ago for me, I have always felt such empathy for retail workers since. It’s fucking brutal and the general public are MEAN.

And getting worse!! I always joke that it's not Christmas in retail until someone yells "You've ruined Christmas!!"
