Attitude

Staying happy during the Holidays (while working in retail) is all about attitude. It's how you step over the store threshold, how you handle bumps in the road with fellow workers, ways of dealing with holiday complainers (even those who return gifts before Christmas and throw the coupons that came with them in your face), steadfastly enjoying those ever repeating Holiday songs, and happily counting down the final days.

I'm doing okay as I head into my third day of the day and night job. This morning however, it was a bit of black humor that gave me a lift. Read this article and you'll understand some of my bigger issues with Christmas. Laugh along with, and you'll understand some of the joys too.
