I know some people are already thinking dirty thoughts but no, it’s not like that. I had this thought while watching, Of All things, Life Size 2 last December. I remember a part with a mall Santa and I thought “you know what, I could do that!”

The thing is, it’s completely antithetical to my personality: I don’t mind children (mostly) but I HATE babies and tend to get irritated easily, plus I’m slightly germaphobic and I’ve heard kids get sick a lot. But here’s the thing, all of that is actually motivating me. I think it would be a good character building experience for me, and I can learn a lot about patience while giving hope to young kids while doing so. My family would probably think I’ve lost my mind if I told them this!

I’m only 20, so I don’t know if I would be allowed to this year, but hopefully this’ll all work out!

    So many kids are scared of Santa when they meet him. Be prepared for lots of scream and tantrums while dumb parents insist they do it for photos.

    Who the fuck wants a photo of their snot covered, screaming, distressed child?

    I worked as an Easter Bunny once, and some parts of it can be brutal.

      At least the Easter bunny can hide their real face

        True that, but it got really hot in that costume, I would only get one break during my shift and once I thought I was gonna pass out. The name of the shitty company I worked for was Santa Plus, and this was in South Florida in the early 90's.

        I had worked in several other costumes character jobs which were much better, because I would get a break every thirty minutes which I was told was pretty much standard in that line of work.

          At least you were one Easter bunny who truly had eggs, being female and all. OK that was a dumb joke.

        Nope, I'm definitely more of an Easter bunny type.

    20-year-olds cannot be Santa. You need to be at least 50 and overweight.

    Go for it. My cousin is a mall Santa. Despite the fact that he has no kids and doesn't like kids, he finds the job fun.

    "while giving hope to young kids" - you mean lie, right? (I'm one of these people who never believed in Santa Claus)

    I think you have to be old enough to be an AARP member before you can be Santa.

    Me personally I'd rather get hit in the head by a donkey.
