Show Kindness to Retail Workers During Holidays

The holiday season is a busy time for stores. Retail workers must deal with many shoppers. This time can be hard for them and make their job difficult.

People feel stressed and rushed during the holidays. This can cause them to forget about others. Shopping areas become like pressure cookers where politeness goes away.

Many stores hire extra workers for November and December. These workers face frustrated shoppers. Some customers do not treat employees with respect as real people.

This year, there may be fewer workers in stores. Shoppers are expected to spend even more money. Yelling at workers does not help the situation for anyone involved.

Being polite is important when shopping for gifts. We should treat retail workers with kindness. They are not therapists or punching bags, and should be treated fairly.
