Yep. Same for my wife. She has to be at work by 7pm this year for an overnight shift. Thankfully we live close to my parents' house and can see some family before she goes to work.
Early on Friday, even midnight Thursday I can somewhat understand. But it seems as if it won't end until every store is open all day Thanksgiving Day, and then what's to stop them from opening on Christmas Day?
