Back home...for now
I’ve made it home. I’ve survived my first 6 hours of Black Friday madness. The experience was much different than I had imagined. People really do want their stuff and they don’t care what they have to do to get it. At Wal-Mart I saw the worst of it in the form of actual physical confrontation.
In the more affluent and snooty Macys, while not so obvious, the dynamic still existed. In a setting full of holiday décor and posters wishing good will and happiness, there was little to be found.
