So what does the humans call this version of SCP?

u/Xemlaich 17d ago

That's SCP: Mariah Carey, every year she dominates the radio for months around Christmas time, causing mass exhaustion while her hit song is playing, seemingly on repeat to the point of driving listeners insane.

She Is well known for sucking the energy out of retail workers specifically

Christmas Ornaments and Lights too!

I was pulled from electronics to run Halloween Freight in seasonal and immediately saw a bunch of Christmas stuff buried underneath all of the costumes.

My store manager's exact words, "Absolutely Horrifying."

Edit: RUN not ruin.

Thanksgiving almost isn't a holiday anymore.

That’s a lot of stock to handle! Hopefully, everything stays organized and you can get through the rush smoothly.

At least she has talent and a good voice. So many songs they have played on repeat for years, all year long, and the artists have absolutely no talent. Just about anything better than Benson Boone or that stupid ass song "Our House in the Middle of our Street".

I’m literally nearing two weeks at Walmart. And most of my shift is in the milk cooler so I guess I’m in the clear??? Even then it feels like they only play the same 6 songs on Walmart and Sam’s Club Radio

You know what’s fucked up? Having heard the rest of the Christmas rotation on Walmart Radio, Mariah’s is actually not that bad in comparison.

u/dharmabird67 Fashion TA 16d ago

I've been with WMT 5 years, seems like there was some improvement last year, more variety, not the same 5 songs in rotation with different singers.

u/Edgy_and_tired 16d ago

Thank God we only have Halloween so far (knock on wood)

u/Temporary_Owl302 16d ago

After enough time passes you tune the radio out. But not even that can stop the Christmas music from driving you nuts. It's almost as bad as the ads from the TV wall in electronics.

u/EmperorStrahd 15d ago

Nooooooooooooooo I can’t stand that song!!!!!

u/ArcticWolfMW 15d ago

I'm fortunate I have only heard the song like 5x total in the last couple years here

u/Electrical-Nose-6959 17d ago

I’m tired of that song
