Who said anything about retail? Although maybe I'll console my husband-less self with some retail therapy that day.

Stupid attempt to compare retail with security personnel in prisons.
Quoting ff-princess:I'm pretty pissed off that every three years I lose my husband for a slew of holidays too. why can't people refrain from starting fires or getting injured or ill on the holidays, then my husband wouldn't have to work.
oh, wait... he chose this profession. never mind.
THANK YOU!! I'll be missing all the holidays again because I have to work them too. But I chose this profession.
By the way, my dad was a police officer and he always worked Thanksgiving and Christmas. I understood this as a chikd because someone has to answer the call when someone calls 911.
Exactly LOL ... so proud of you.

Oh forget US military. What about the soldiers who will be away from their families in another country for holidays, birthdays, anniversaries, all of it? Honestly the whole Walmart strike thing is ridiculous, considering the number of people who are working jobs to protect and serve as firefighters, police officers, soldiers, prison guards, EMTs, doctors, nurses, and the list goes on. It's just stupid!
Totally true. There are men who can't even attend their families births or funerals sometimes. Not to mention other men and women who would jump at rhe chance to have such a stable job that's a living wage as well. I'm sure correctional officers pay and benefits are better than the guys working at best buy or McDonald's. ..
