[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My cousin works at Target. She's a single mom and relatively new to this country. She is actually grateful to work on Thanksgiving evening because she gets paid time and a half, since it's a holiday. We are watching her kids so she can make some money. So, not all of these employees are being held hostage to work-some actually need every dime they get to put food on the table. I don't think a lot of people on this forum really and truly "get" that.[/quote] I worked retail in high school & college and most of my coworkers loved the holidays for the extra hours and money. There are still labor laws requiring hourly workers to have 8 hours between shifts, etc., etc. I'm sure some employees are upset to have to work on a holiday but I bet the vast majority are happy for the extra money. People working retail are used to not having a lot of flexibility in their schedule.[/quote]
