PINEVILLE, NC – When we reached the Best Buy checkout, we asked the clerk what time they made her get there that morning. “4:30” she said.

“Do they give you bonuses or anything for working on Black Friday?” She looked at us blankly. “…or a free hat maybe?”
“It’s just Black Friday, it’s not like it’s… we got free Burger King,” she said.
“Oh, that’s nice of them.”
“No, it’s not. I hate Burger King.” — BEN POPKEN
