Wal-Mart and Target Employees Protest Black Friday Retail Practices

No rest for the weary.

None

With Black Friday looming at the end of the week, many consumers are waiting with bated breath for the chance to purchase all sorts of shit for cheap. People who aren't excited? The employees who have to deal with these frantic customers. Workers at Wal-Mart and Target have balked at the retailers' strategy for the big sales day, with Target even opening up on Thanksgiving Day. Come on, son, how is a dude supposed to enjoy dinner when he's gotta clock in?

A Target employee in California has even gone so far as to petition the company's CEO to close the store on Thanksgiving.
