Thanksgiving


Thanksgiving is my second favorite holiday right behind Christmas and I think everyone else would agree that they like this holiday as well. I like it so much because it brings me and my small family together at my grandma’s house and we all watch the lions lose and eat great food. More and more stores keep starting to open on Thanksgiving, which to me isn’t a good thing. If more stores keep opening than they will all need more workers to work, and by needing this, it will take people away from spending time with their families, ruining Thanksgiving for a lot of people.  I think about all stores should be closed down, black Friday is the very next day and stores can make their holiday profit then.
People shouldn’t be forced to work on Thanksgiving, especially if they have plans with their family. I don’t see the reason to have so many stores trying to outdo each other on thanksgiving by trying to be open first and beat their competitors. If people need anything on thanksgiving from a store than they should get it a day or two in advance and not wait till the last minute. If stores want to be open on Thanksgiving so early than they should at least open their doors as soon as they can for black Friday but not all on Thanksgiving, to me that is unfair for all the workers that must go out and work and miss out on this delicious holiday.
