For those that can’t stand this time of the year, my misery seeks company. What does it for you?
For me: aside from the usual family stuff:
I worked front-end in a post office back when that meant a line-up before I opened the doors to the end of the day when I had to inform the line-up that was still out the door that, yes, I was going to close on time. (Some didn’t take that well. For me it was just another Tuesday…)
It meant a lot of work with little thanks and I had to listen to the same shitty Xmas playlist over and over all day.
Edit/PS: The quick downvote sells it. Perfection. chefs kiss
I think I’ve come around to preferring Halloween in a way. It’s not a big thing in Australia (though I feel it’s growing) and a lot of people whinge about it being American. I don’t really participate in Halloween but the core thing here is just people having fun. And I can get behind that.
