No longer are these people working in retail able to enjoy Thanksgiving with their families (I know, some of this started last year, but it appears to be getting worse).
Some retailers, particularly discount retailers, are forcing employees (generally low and lower-middle class) employees to work as early as 6pm on Thursday, in true classless fashion. It should come as no surprise that among those listed are struggling companies such as Sears, K-Mart (owned by Sears), Kohl's, J.C. Penney, and Macy's with Best Buy and evil Walmart considering Thursday openings too.
With the majority of Americans dislike or hating these policies, I hope people use it to push back against the infringement upon basic employee rights and benefits. Ineffective sales would force some of these sleazy retailers to revert back to preserving Thanksgiving for workers to spend with their families.
