After working on Black Friday so many years,this was my first time being on the other side.I woke up early and waited in line for the store to open. Security was there to keep people back who tried to dash from cars in to the store at 6 am. Those people had to wait until everyone who was in line got in first.
I was surprised to listen to the radio that day when they would give mall parking lot updates along with the traffic report. Does this happen anywhere else?
With shopping this past weekend, it's first come first serve.One of my pet peeves when I would work during the holidays is when people wouldn't believe that an item was sold out and insist that there was an extra one in the stock room. They're just salespeople not magicians.
