You know maybe these companies should -- perhaps offer more incentives to the workers saying he worked Thanksgiving you get.

Double overtime or maybe even a gift card to the store.

Yes I think if if some was gonna work on a holiday there should be extra incentives in an I used to work in retail and I was used to working those hours and so.

It's par for the course in a lot of ways.

However if they're if the -- employer can offer -- gift card or time and a half like you said.

A little more incentive than perhaps the workers will be a little happier doing the work -- video of the won't work worry about leaving their families on Thanksgiving evening as much right I don't actually exactly I don't know about that but I think -- that was between the two of us nobody else got millions listening.
