That poor young girl has had to put that tree together more times all day and from last night over and over and......

Good grief! I've had this show on and off all day long. Every time I see it, she's putting together that tree.

I hope they pay her well. She's so small.

@Annabellethecat66I haven't watched her, but from my point of view, there are thousands of jobs far worse than putting together a Christmas tree on national television. I'm saving my sympathy.

@millieshops I think of everything as "Oh! My aching back". My back has affected my knee pain. It's stupid. So every time I see her bending over.....it's like....Oh!

She's young and both her knees are strong; otherwise she wouldn't be demonstrating it. It was nice to show your sympathetic feelings though.

@Patriot3

QVC has really started to overdo the TSV......(and not just CIJ either).....Yep, between the gift bags, trees, and now the candles the CIJ shows have gotten very repetitive......I do the same and turn the channel, or take care of a household chore when I see the same ole presentations.............

I'd have been more impressed with the demo, if they had someone my age, with back problems and arthritis put the tree together. Thinking further it would be nice if they would tell the details, ie. how much each section of the tree weighs.

I thought I heard her say, while putting the 7-1/2 footer together, the middle section weighed 20lbs.

I almost went for the tree but decided after seeing it a few times there were too many dark areas in the tree where there were no lights at all.
