^^ Not likely. A good portion of these employees will be seasonal/temp hires, who have no rights to benefits or holiday pay, and even then, things happen like only being paid for the two hours of the "holiday" until midnight, and then switching back to whatever wage they make for a normal day.
I will not be shopping or buying a damn thing on Black Friday, nor on Thanksgiving day, and I'm so ridiculously relieved that the place where I work would never open on thanskgiving, and will be holding their normal hours on Friday.
Retail workers get abused and yelled at all day long on Black Friday, and I have to tell you that it is a day that I dread with every fiber of my being. Normally sane people become crabby, irrational, and demanding on Black Friday, and somehow thing that retail associates have this magic power to make other colors of a product appear, or we have some secret stash of product somewhere, or that we set the prices of things, or that we are uneducated.
Black Friday is seriously my version of Hell.
