TOP 5 WORST THINGS ABOUT SHOPPING MALLS AT CHRISTMAS TIME

Overview: The mall is great at “Back to school” time when all of the high school and college girls are looking for the latest, tightest, shortest outfits, but at holiday time there is nothing good about shopping malls.

Criteria: If it happens at a shopping mall in December, count it.

Rob's Notes: This list is primarily from memory for me, since I refuse to go to the mall, ever, let alone at Christmas. God bless the internet. Almost everything I remember loathing about the malls involves people and their stupidity.

Arnie's Notes: Look here, the holidays are terrible. Especially at the Mall due to these five reasons.  Other people don't care about you usually and it's even worse at the holidays.  As far as seasonal employees go, hello they are going to be fired in a few weeks why should they give a flying crap about you or the products that they are selling.

 

Rob's Top 5

5. Foreigners (they’re everywhere, they speak loud in a strange language, they don’t know our rules or customs of etiquette and they try to pay for things in rubles)

4. The ever-growing-always-getting-larger santa village and all that comes with it (kids, crying, poop, etc)

3. Picture takers you have to walk around while they get a photo of a fountain

2. Slippery floors. It’s a safety issue, damn it.

1. Seasonal employees who don’t know crap about the store they’re working in.
