I started this blog to chronicle my descent into madness as I try to get my first book published.

A retail workers guide to surviving Black Friday !
Here I am after a four hour nap watching Dr. Who on netflix and just plain old relaxing. Even during my nap I couldn't get black Friday out of my head. Today I drank more caffeine than I ever have in my life. I also crashed harder than I ever have making today incredibly hard. People who work in retail work incredibly hard. Especially on a day like today. They give up time with their families all to bring the products for a bit less to the masses. Today people were pretty nice. I only had a few problems but for the most part the masses were grateful for the help I could offer and that I pointed out the great deals from the ad. Unlike last year where the masses turned on me as if I were a pinata and they could just beat me down with a bat and get some sort of candy for their efforts. To survive black Friday don't drink too much caffeine and go to bed early. there is no better advice than that. My head is now swimming again and I think I need more sleep. Please next time you are shopping be nice to those that help you. They sacrifice a lot to be there to take care of you as a customer.
