Maybe, I don't know. He works as much as they'll let him, so it wouldn't surprise me at all if he volunteered to cover someone's shift for Black Friday prep.

time and a half pay is what most working people make per hour every day. man...its not worth it for that madness. as much as my job is no fun, I'll gladly take the holiday pay I got for not working turkey day. I'm so thankful for that.

That is how addiction works, you will give up almost anything and/or DO almost anything to get your next fix.

I smoked for ten years, I "quit" three times, the first two didn't catch.

When I was younger I was one of those "Just stop buying them, how hard can that be?" then the monster got me.

Buying cartons was always a bad idea, you don't need to be conservative with the smokes at 3am.
