was suddenly hit with the most profound relief at the realization that...if my 90 day review goes well tomorrow... i won't have to listen to christmas music constantly at work this year 
no shade on folks who do like holiday music. i respect your tastes. i just hated it and then worked retail for 3 years and hated it even more FJNSKDMKLFB
GRIPS YOUR HANDS SO TIGHT
IT'S SUCH A RELIEF CEE
thank GOD
i don't mind christmas music but it gets really old really fast imo
i get tired of hearing it three days into the retail season
YEAH JUST
being trapped in a store with it for hours every damn day starting the day after thanksgiving
absolute nightmare
also our rotation did not have a good variety. that made it so much worse. how many times can i listen to the same cover of frosty the snowman before i commit a crime
i feel it after years of retail... just thinking about it still makes me physically recoil 
GOD RIGHT
I enjoyed it when my store played the GOOD stuff....which was very rare
i think that christmas music should be played on christmas and that's it
tbh i'm fine with it like... xmas week... but i don't need it from black friday to fuckign new year's 
also. i never hear holiday-specific music that isn't christmas.
the only christmas song that has rights is carol of the bells (specifically the one that goes hard as fuck)
the rest BEGONE
i still have a visceral reaction to winter wonderland
I'll never forget the version of jingle bells that was just dog barks that constantly played at work
this job was more than 10 years ago.
winter wonderland.......... 
i heard that one 3 times in a row one year bc it was all different covers
i heard that one 3 times in a row one year bc it was all different covers
ALSO HERMY THAT SOUNDS ABSOLUTELY HORRIFIC
lmao 🤝 being traumatized by christmas music in retail
carol of the bells is acceptable though yes
but if I hear All I Want For Christmas Is You or Last Christmas one more time I will spontaneously combust
so fun fact
until halloween really started taking off down here in the last decade or so, christmas music usually started in like
early to mid october
if all i want for christmas as you has no haters, that is because I am dead.
last christmas also. if those two songs have a million haters, then I am one of them. If they 10 haters, then i am one of them. if they have one hater, that is me.
Jingle Bells
FREEDOM FOR CEE
