Selz Posted November 24, 2010 Share Posted November 24, 2010 Do you still have some traders or does absolutely everything close for the day? I just wondered because my best mate is going to NY for the weekend, they are flying out of Heathrow tomorrow morning so with flight time about 7 hours and then time difference of 5 hours they will probably get there quite early... I get visions of them being stuck in the hotel all day because everything's closed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Selz Posted November 25, 2010 Author Share Posted November 25, 2010 So please educate muh... why is it called Black Friday? And do you all have to go back to work? Cuz that would be harsh to have to go back for one day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aquaria Posted November 25, 2010 Share Posted November 25, 2010 it's called black friday because of the sales, and it puts businesses back in the black, which is good financially I think Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cuz that would be harsh to have to go back for one day. Many people do their shopping on the day after Thanksgiving, and because it's very hectic that's where the "black" part comes in... I remember someone on here posted about an employee that actually died from getting trampled over. I don't know about work, I would imagine many workers get the day off, but I know schools close on the Friday after. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
