Working retail is never easy, but it becomes ten times harder during the holiday season. The stores become crazier, busier and harder to keep under control, and angry customers do not make it any easier. I'm sure if you have ever worked retail you can relate to at least one of the following memes about what it's like...

1. Going into your fifth shift in a row
