Everyone going shopping on Black Friday, be aware of three things:

The retail workers are working 12 hours shifts. We are threatened with losing our jobs if we don’t show up unless we’re dying in the hospital. I had an assistant manager show up with fucking strep because he would’ve been fired otherwise. Yes, he did infect 7 and hospitalize 2 coworkers; who knows how many members of the public he infected.

The stores have, maybe, 5 of that special cheap thing you’re after. Corporate does this on purpose, and stores are not allowed to order enough. The prices aren’t even that much lower. They lie about how expensive something is to fool you into thinking you’re getting a discount. You aren’t.

Most of the workers you will come across will be new hires for the sole purpose of being bodies for about three months before they’re fired. They actually don’t know anything because they’ve been working there for maybe two weeks, and have had no real training. I was once hired at Staples a week before Black Friday and expected to know how to deal with phones, coupons, the online ordering site, and AS400 after five 6-hour shifts. This is the kind of person you will likely be dealing with at Black Friday.

Do me and my retail family a favor and don’t shop Black Friday. Any company that needs a sale day like Black Friday to get their sales out of the red doesn’t deserve to be in business.

This also goes for anyone that works shipment too. We’re suddenly expected to stay as late as they want you to even if they know you don’t have a car and rely on a ride to get you to and from work and know you can’t stay late. Shipment workers will suddenly start getting berated for not getting things done and it is by far the most stressful time to be a shipment worker for any store. Especially when they throw in new hires that don’t know how to process things and are expected to work at the same pace as the people that have worked there for a while.

Retail is shit around the holidays, especially Black Friday

[jedi-giraffe]

ok fellow millenials, it’s time to kill black friday

LET’S KILL BLACK FRIDAY

[celestialspiritqueen]

Target is open until 1 am on thanksgiving to open 6 am Friday at the one I work at with people who will stock all throughout the night. Please be aware of this and don’t be crazy or rude

[parlezvousladybug]

Seriously? Boycott Shopping Thursday AND Friday. The way retail workers are treated is ridiculous. Shop small local stores on Saturday if you’re able to in your area. Keep dollars in YOUR community and avoid big box stores/major chains (especially Amazon) if you at all can.

[ms-demeanor]

Also consider that this is an really excellent time to support independent artists and creators. Here are some really cool folks on tumblr who sell some excellent stuff:

@vaspider - awesome pride merch and geek stuff; everything from hats to patches to backpacks.

@winneganfake - really really really cool handcrafted leather goods.

@pangur-and-grim - pins, patches, and prints.

@musterni-illustrates - tarot decks and really awesome tarot patches.

@micahulrichdraws - hauntingly beautiful illustrations, tarot decks, clothing.

On top of all of that you know what people fucking love? They fucking love it when they get art that was made just for them. Now is probably the perfect time to commission a drawing of your sister’s dog or your mom’s favorite movie character or something like that. Show the artists on your dash some love and commission them so that you can give a one-of-a-kind gift and win christmas.

[saxifraga-x-urbium]

hey my book should be out by black Friday. order that instead of going to a shop and making a retail worker’s life hell

[nonasuch]

Some folks I know who make/find cool things and definitely deserve your post-turkey dollars:

Tin Ink Studio - pins, patches, handbound notebooks and handwoven scarves

Dog Star Printing - letterpress prints

Trash Palace - vintage home goods

The MacBath - literary themed soaps and bath bombs (we’re gonna start carrying them at the shop soon!)

(And I definitely wouldn’t complain if you chose to spend your Small Business Saturday at my brick-and-mortar, or paid a visit to my Etsy.)

depression and being in the closet stole my teenage years from me so if you catch me doing some juvenile shit in my late twenties mine your own damn business

i need!!! to be in the forest. run my hand through a little stream. climb over a fallen tree…maybe sit down on a stone and forget about society for a bit

Those articals also don’t take into account the context of [some, not all] European diets. In places where food is treated as a sacred social activity and you get an hour or more to eat lunch, it’s easier to make healthier choices. And you go out to eat and chill and bond with your friends and family, or laze around a park, even during work lunch breaks. In the places where people are healthiest, scarfing down something from the microwave in the back room while your boss breathes down your neck on your 15 minute non-break would be outrageous. Having no time or energy to prepare dinner or relax because you’re so overworked is significantly rarer. 

A glass of red wine is good for you, but probably not as important as the fact you get hours to appreciate it in the company of other people.

It’s universal healthcare and worker’s rights and just valuing human life in general

HOSPITALS. ARE. ALREADY. REQUIRED. UNDER. LAW. TO. PROVIDE. LIFE. SAVING. EMERGENCY. CARE. REGARDLESS. OF. ABILITY. TO. PAY. OR. EVEN. CITIZENSHIP.

Stop acting like Americans have no access to emergency healthcare unless we socialize medicine.

This hospital in my city just threw out a homeless man

[bankuei]

The hospital which took me in after I collapsed from the fist sized tumor over my heart, released me after refusing to diagnose it as cancer, which would have forced them to give me some kind of treatment. The doctor at the county hospital which took me in looked at their tests and said, “this is CLEARLY cancer, why didn’t they diagnose it? We can’t let you leave.”

Hospitals find ways when they want to, to avoid helping people when they want to.

“Oh that’s illegal, you should sue” “ with what money and how will I get the time and energy when I’m busy recovering from chemo?”

People who can’t afford treatment also can’t afford to protect their rights.

[landunderthewave]

Absolutely this: “People who can’t afford treatment also can’t afford to protect their rights.”

[julianunes]

“People who can’t afford treatment also can’t afford to protect their rights.”

let it sink in “People who can’t afford treatment also can’t afford to protect their rights.”

If it takes money to defend, it’s not a right anymore.
