I like the idea. But at the same time, if I am working, I won't be shopping.
But besides that, as the years go by, I get worse about my feeling towards Thanksgiving. I take it as a good reason to take off and meet some family/friends. But I don't buy the historical fairytale we are taught.
About 12 years ago I briefly worked at a retail store on Black Friday. They opened up around 5am and it was like the place was hit by a mass of looters. It's sick and disgusting how people act at these sales events.
