Christmas Spirit?

I hate retail during the holidaze! I misspell holidays because everyone is like in a "daze" walking around malls and shopping centers, like lemmings, to find that "perfect" gift. Then the employee side...quotas, bosses breathing down your neck, all to ensure we get every consumer dollar during this "festive season" Forgive me if I sound like Scrooge, I do like this time of year, however since I chose retail management as a career path, the pain I feel is all my own doing, doesn't mean I have to like it! I just really want people to remember that this season is about family and good will towards your fellow man. It should be like this all of the time, however more emphasis is placed on these things more during this season. I just dislike the fact that Christmas has more of a corporate and financial connotation than a spiritual and faithful one.

If you don't hear from me again this month...Merry Christmas and have a wonderful New Year!
