For those that can’t stand this time of the year, my misery seeks company. What does it for you?
For me: aside from the usual family stuff:
I worked front-end in a post office back when that meant a line-up before I opened the doors to the end of the day when I had to inform the line-up that was still out the door that, yes, I was going to close on time. (Some didn’t take that well. For me it was just another Tuesday…)
It meant a lot of work with little thanks and I had to listen to the same shitty Xmas playlist over and over all day.
Edit/PS: The quick downvote sells it. Perfection. chefs kiss
I don’t mind if gifts I give to my friends/ family are not met with gifts in return. Gift giving is like my love language (if those are actually a thing) and I genuinely enjoy the process of searching for something that I think they would want/ could use. I don’t expect any sort of reaction, or quid pro quo. I just like giving gifts to people who make my life better, lol.
