It's the effing 10th of November! Now I realize a lot of retail stores had their muzak changed over to nonstop Christmas music a LONG time ago, but this is ridiculous.
I don't WANT to be warm and cheery. I spend my day having to dodge/cater to self-entitled uppity douches and even more self-entitled uppity old people, unless it's at night, then the even more self-entitled uppity old people are asleep in their chair or watching Matlock, so then I only have to deal with self-entitled uppity douches, self-entitled, spoiled white high school kids who think they're black, and an endless supply of self-entitled, whiny hunters who get all pouty when I take more than 30 seconds to come from doing REAL work to get on the world's slowest computer to get their oh-so-precious deer tag (which my store doesn't make a DIME off of) and pitch an unholy whiny crying fit whenever they're asked to show their I.D. (It's the LAW numbnuts, now stop being part of the problem and start being part of the solution, show your goddamned I.D. and get the on with it). I DO NOT WANT TO BE WARM AND CHEERY! TIS THE SEASON TO KISS MY @$$!!! If I encounter ONE customer who says either "please," "thank you," or "excuse me" all day, I feel like having a heart attack. NEWSFLASH TO CORPORATE: PIPING IN NON-STOP CHRISTMAS MUSIC ON TOP OF ALL THAT ONLY ADDS TO THE PROBLEM. EXPONENTIALLY.
EVERY. SINGLE. DAY. for the NEXT TWO MONTHS I will get to hear the exact same 5 Christmas songs over and over again in varying renditions, from white person actually SINGING it, to black person who thinks they are on Soul Train, to upbeat jazz rendition, to random screamer of something that sort of RESEMBLES a Christmas carol but not really, to opera star which is pretty much the same thing, to some random lame-ass accapella choir, and absolutely NO Trans-Siberian Orchestra whatsoever, which is pretty much the ONLY good recorded version of any Christmas carol.
I'm glad my store no longer sells firearms.
