Today, my manager made everyone put up Christmas decorations around the store. As well as this, we're going to have Christmas music playing on repeat all the way through to January. It's not even September yet. FML

Today, the mall I work at started playing Christmas songs on repeat. It's the beginning of November. FML

Today, my boss insisted that we get in the holiday mood by putting up lights, playing Christmas music, and wearing bells on our uniforms. It's not even Thanksgiving yet and I can't even have a tinkle without full-blown jingling. FML

Today, at my job at the mall, our music malfunctioned and now will only play the same three songs over and over again. Our manager won't let us turn it off because "the customers won't notice". FML

Today, my neighbors coated their house in flashing Christmas lights and blared out "We Wish You a Merry Christmas" all day long. Only 29 days left until Christmas. FML

Today, I came home to find my parents wearing Santa hats and blasting Christmas music at full volume. So begins three months of hell. FML

Today, and every day this week, my office mate has decided to "liven up the place" by singing and whistling Christmas tunes and other unknown songs. She has zero musical ability. FML

Today, my boss thought it would be a great idea to delay paying me until after Christmas. There goes rent, bills, food and of course Christmas presents. FML

Today, is Christmas day. Normally, I'd spend it with family. However, my boss decided everyone has to work today, despite the fact that there's enough people who want to work to run the place. Apparently it's "fairer" if we all have to do it - except him. FML

Today, as I was hung over from a concert and refusing to get out of bed, my dad decided to hook up his top notch speaker system and play Christmas music that shook the house. It's July. Let the family weekend begin. FML

"It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas!" Seriously though, that sucks. If anything, they should do this with Halloween stuff so I have more time to buy more decorations for my home.

Nope. But Xmas is mostly a retail holiday these days, for the vast majority of people. Sad but true.

It could be worse. You could work at Bronner's Christmas Wonderland in Frankenmuth, Michigan. It's a year round Christmas store. Complete with Christmas music on repeat. Don't believe me? Look it up. I was ready to shoot myself after 5 minutes in that place when I went.

I hate how stores push Christmas down everyone's throats when the holiday is not for a number of months. Plus they are skipping Halloween and Thanksgiving.
