If you’ve never been to a Black Friday sale (I never have, and probably never will) you MUST watch this video. At 3:30 or so you can see people tearing through plastic wrap and I feel sorry for the employees working in the store at 4:13.

I worked at Radio Shack for a year. During Black Friday, one of the sale items was a $10 calculator marked down to $5. Two sweet, elderly women came in to the store looking for them. When I told them there was only one left in the display, the sh** was ON.
It turned in to a geriatric version of roller derby without the skates. The one grandma who lost the race called the other one a “f**king bitch” as she was standing in the checkout line, gripping her $5 prize.
I always imagined some little kid opening presents on Christmas morning and getting this stupid $5 calculator, not really wanting it and having no clue about the back story behind it, as grandma, sipping her tea, looks on with a triumphant gleam in her eye.
Very sad. Employees should be provided with earplugs.
