I worked in retail for years ( cards and gifts)...OMG December was a killer. We used to have these huge Thanksgiving dinners and I had to be at work by 6 am that Friday. ARGHH how I hated retail. And that was only the beginning, rest did not come until the first week in January and then we had to prepare for Valentine's Day. I live on Long Island and at that time all my district meetings were in NJ, so even that was a project....: ))).

You do what you can and would love to have you come. I hope to start making the meets in NYC myself in the future.

I don't know if I'll be in NJ for the holidays yet. I won't know until a week or two prior. Please keep me on your reminder list. I have my own nametag, so don't sweat that.

I'm a PC support guy...except for tax free holidays and December. Then you'll find me, and every other office guy, working the retail floor. Sigh.
