Death Count: Μετρώντας τους νεκρούς της Μαύρης Παρασκευής

Η «Μαύρη Παρασκευή», που τα τελευταία χρόνια τείνει να καθιερωθεί και στην Ελλάδα, δεν είναι αναίμακτη.

Η ιστοσελίδα Black Friday Death Count καταμετρά τους θανάτους και τους τραυματισμούς που έχουν σημειωθεί μέσα στην τελευταία δεκαετία κατά τη διάρκεια των διοργανώσεων της «Μαύρης Παρασκευής».

Τοποθετεί σε χρονολογική σειρά τα περιστατικά 10 θανάτων και 111 τραυματισμών πελατών και υπαλλήλων πολυκαταστημάτων.

Μόνο το 2016, μία από τις χειρότερες χρονιές, σημειώθηκαν 3 θάνατοι και 7 τραυματισμοί. Και οι 3 θάνατοι προκλήθηκαν στα πάρκινγκ μεγάλων πολυκαταστημάτων τα ξημερώματα της «Μαύρης Παρασκευής», την ώρα που οι πελάτες περίμεναν το άνοιγμα των καταστημάτων.

Σε χώρες του εξωτερικού η «Μαύρη Παρασκευή» έχει πλέον ταυτιστεί με τη βίαιη συμπεριφορά των καταναλωτών που εκτός ελέγχου τρέχουν να προλάβουν τις προσφορές, αλλά και με τις εξαντλητικές απαιτήσεις από τους υπαλλήλους που καλούνται να εργαστούν σε διευρυμένα ωράρια με μεγάλο φόρτο.

Στην Ελλάδα μέχρι στιγμής η διοργάνωση αντιμετωπίζεται με μεγάλο ενθουσιασμό, ενώ το ίδιο το κρατικό πρακτορείο ειδήσεων καλύπτει ζωντανά την εξέλιξή της.
