Too soon for Christmas.
WAAAAAY too soon.
WAAAAAY too soon.
Not at all. Have you ever done project planning for a business?
Too soon for candy and trees in the stores, but in this case, well it's not like the WH can just slap on a couple of light strings and call it a day.
As long as Christmas is back and infuriating those who purged, the Trump family should start planning in March for "Christmas in July".
It would be a nice touch. The Bible doesn't give an exact date anyway, so it leaves the options open.
Agree.
One of our pastors puts her TREE up Sept.10 and keeps decorating thereafter. She loves Christmas.
More of an after Thanksgiving person myself.
WAAAAAY too soon.
No way. Sure it's too early for us to start listening to Christmas carols, etc., but planning for the numerous big-time events that go on in the White House during Christmastime takes an enormous effort.
Regardless of who is President, there are several parties/gatherings each Christmas season in the WH... planning needs to be done for very detailed decorations, floral designs, extensive menu planning and food ordering, invitations by the WH calligrapher, coordination of music and musicians, etc.
December 1st seems like a good kickoff date for the Christmas season...or whenever Thanksgiving leftovers run out.
Back when I was working in food if you did not have your Christmas specialty numbers in before the Fourth you were LATE.
In retail you pretty much have everything planned and ordered by Memorial Day.
In this case people have to apply and be screened so I would say they are a little behind.
Now it is way to early to start putting up decorations. The peach harvest isn't even finished yet. But the planning you should have that going already.
“WAAAAAY too soon.”
Every person will have to be investigated; it’ll take a while.
A couple of my best friends worked at Hudson’s department store before Macy’s took them over. I asked them about Christmas and why does it come so early in the stores. They told me that it takes them more than a month to have everything ready for the day after Thanksgiving, the first day of Christmas shopping. They worked at night when no shoppers were in the store. They had to plan the layers of decorations and place them appropriately. So, to do it right takes time and planning.
I take it you’ve never worked in Retail, especially a ‘seasonal’ store like my Garden Center. You’ve got to stay ahead of the curve, or you’ll miss a LOT of sales.
Cha-Ching! :)
