What is it about xmas season?

Ok. Do customers know when i am by myself in the morning? When there are 2 people, there never seems to be a ton of customers or the phone ringing off the freaking hook. We were so busy this morning, both my area and cameras. I was so frustrated cause I always had to put down what i was doing to get the stupid phone. I feel so bad for my customers when I have to do that because I feel like I have to ignore them because no one else will pick up the phone. I constantly had customers this morning, only one lady that was in such a rush even though i was with someone else interrupted me while i was waiting for my customer to decide that i was just thinking omg real nice. Luckily my other customer didn't care but I was still like come on lady i am busy enough, what the heck? You can't wait two minutes?! This is the main reason why I hate xmas season, people just get all nasty and so impatient. I know my mother will know what I am talking about. I was so beyond thrilled once my coworker nikki finally came in, i actually hugged her and almost started crying cause I was just so happy that someone else had come to my area. Don't get me wrong, I really like where I work but I will love the day that I finally get out of retail. Will probably be one of the best days of my life. Well I just wanted to share my thoughts and feelings about what happened to me today. Hope you all still have a good christmas season!
