As you know, Black Friday is the name given to the Friday that falls right after Thanksgiving (the United States Thanksgiving, that is). And while to most of us, Black Friday is associated with a shopping spree, the term was first used to describe a phenomenon happening among factory workers. Coined in 1951 by Factory Management and Maintenance journal, it referred to the practice of workers calling in sick the day after Thanksgiving due to ‘food poisoning’ in order to have a four-day weekend.
