I was working on Black Friday. It was a VERY interesting experience. We were to open at 6 but I was the only one who was actually there at 6. Let me break this down real quick for you

If you've ever witnessed a Tim Hortons morning shift, you'd know that's n understatement XD. I'm surprised I still have my job.

My wife works as a manager at a Target store. They opened at 6am on Black Friday. We had to leave our Thanksgiving get-together early to drive home so that she could get up before 5:00am. Oh yeah, did I mention that Black Friday was also her Birthday! Happy Birthday, indeed! Twisted Evil Twisted Evil Twisted Evil

Black Friday is the day after Thanksgiving. It's the busiest shopping day of the year. They call it Black Friday because of the economy line comes out of the red and into the black, which is a good thing.
