Nearly Everyone Sides with Those Forced to Work Thanksgiving
Published at
OJO Images/Thinkstock(NEW YORK) — Thanksgiving Day shopping is just three days away.
With more retailers than ever throwing open their doors on a day which once meant a holiday for everyone, PBS.org has conducted a poll to ask whether retailers should remain open on Thursday.
Apparently, Americans feel a lot of compassion for those who have to work Thanksgiving Day because about 98 percent of the 12,300 respondents have thus far agreed, “No, employees should be able to spend Thanksgiving at home.”
“Yes, it’s nice to have another option for Black Friday sales” received about 1.5 percent of the vote with the remaining few said they were “Unsure.”
