Today, the mall I work at started playing Christmas songs on repeat. It's the beginning of November. FML

A few weeks ago I was at a rather large retail chain and saw Christmas decorations right across from the Halloween decorations. Dressing as a homicidal Santa Clause for Halloween briefly crossed my mind.

Having spent a few years working in retail I can confirm this is the most soul destroying part of the run up the Christmas. Because nothing enforces Christmas cheer like playing jingle bells on repeat

The race to see who can promote Christmas the most is just one of many soul-crushing things about working retail.

I completely understand your frustration. I hate when people skip over the other holidays like they don't exist. While trick or treating with my kids the other night I saw more houses ALREADY decorated for Christmas than Halloween. Ugh.

The fringe benefit is that the FMLs practically write themselves.

Did anybody else start singing their favorite Christmas song in their head after reading this?

Yeah..""Twelve Days of Christmas" song is playing in my head - ugh

No. Because it doesn't exist. I hate Christmas. I only play along for the kids.

As soon as read the fml my head-fi started playing It's the most wonderful time of the year

The best way to spread Christmas cheer, is singing loud for all to hear!

Tis the season to be jolly fala **** ala.
