A White Walker Christmas

| Working | December 24, 2014

(It’s early fall, and I’m teaching an employee who wasn’t with us through the Christmas season last year about how the job changes at that time of year. The customers are different, we go through so much more product, etc. I can tell she’s a bit nervous about the inevitable chaos.)

Coworker: “I’ve never worked retail during Christmas before.”

Me: “Yeah, well, brace yourself.”

Coworker: “Winter is coming.”

Me: “…that is the most apt usage of that expression that I have ever heard.”
