Well, Thanksgiving traditions don't stop just because I have to work. I bring to work freshly-baked Pillsbury orange cinnamon rolls, a 20+ year Thanksgiving morning tradition. When I didn't have to work Thanksgiving morning, the cinnamon rolls would be partnered with mimosas (not happening, of course). Since it'll be a slow news day for NFL -- just games + Game Day Morning -- we'll be watching the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade also.

This. Can't tell you how many times I had been told, "Well just got get a different career if you don't like it." Sure, let me snap my fingers.

You have to be a certain kind of person with a certain kind of personality to LOVE working in retail. I am not that person. But you know, bills.

It took me 5 years to get out, but I'm out. Finally.
