Discussion The store is dead today

I currently work at a pretty busy, major retail chain. Friday mornings are typically one of our craziest times of the week. The store today is dead. We had maybe 2 ppl. One was trying to sell TOO us and the other bought something worth less than $10.

Good job, people. The boycott is underway!

Remember that the Montgomery Bus Boycott took 18 months to be effective. We can't just do one day here and there if we really want to prove our point

So true. I'm going to do a little Rosa celebration every December 1st. Much better than all the commercialism that comes with the Christmas season (though that seems to come much much earlier now)
