I worked retail in those days, it was crazy. It was common for a few fights to break out. One time I remember pulling out a new skid of Christmas trees and I didn't even get to the main isle before customers mobbed the skid. My manager was so pissed off at me for not stopping them but how can one person stop dozens of people without any help. Black Friday was gross and BFCM is no better.
Worked at a Best Buy back in 2018. I’m 5’. I thought I was going to be trampled several times by aggressive packs of customers. I quit a few days later.
