Away To Work

Thursday, December 19, 2024

This is a quickie today because I must leave for work very early. Christmas shoppers have been keeping the store busy. My coworkers and I try hard to make hopefully everybody happy. That’s proving a challenge near Christmas because people are stressed and anxious, especially last-minute shoppers who aren’t finding the exact gifts they wish to give.

Seasonal sales began about six weeks ago. The first three weeks were for “Black Friday,” and these three have been for Christmas. By now, most stores are thin on popular sizes and styles.

The lesson is to shop early. One might not want to, which is understandable, but retail has changed and continues to change. Shopping habits, too, are changing constantly.

Dear Friends: Many constant changes in the big world push us daily. Diana
