Well Santa’s job would seem like the best job to have but if you really think about it it can kinda stink. Here are some disadvantages of being Santa 🙂
#1 Santa has to get up really early to get ready to travel around the world.
#2 If there are like a billion kids in the world and all of them put out treats for Santa you would get really sick from eating all of them.
#3 Santa has to take care of a lot of elves and eight reindeer.
#4 Santa has to travel really high to get to all of the houses of children so if you were scared of heights it might not end well.
#5 Santa has to deal with sleigh dysfunction be for Christmas so there are no problems on Christmas Eve.
#6 Santa has to work out a lot so he can burn of all of those cookies.
#7 Santa has a lot of different names so he has to put a hole bunch of names for Santa on all his gifts and find the right name to fit what the family calls him.
#8 You cant have very many friends besides the elves and his wife because no one can see him.
#9 You have to have a wife.
#10 If you are a girl and you want to be Santa you have to become a boy.
And those are my ten disadvantageous of being Santa Clause.

Hi Chloe! I am a college student at Stockton University in Pomona, NJ. I loved the creativity behind your blog post! I always thought it would be so cool to be Santa Clause. I had never taken the time to think of all the disadvantages till reading your post. Your post made me open my eyes and perhaps I wouldn’t ever want to be Santa Clause. I think I will leave the job to Jolly old Saint Nick himself. I love your point # 2, there are so many children throughout the world and that is a lot of snacks to have to eat! I think I would have a belly ache or even want to take a nap. Which I know I couldn’t because I would have many children relying on me to bring them their presents. Thank you for your insight and the great blog. Keep on writing you have a wondeful imagination.

Hi Chloe!
My name is Emma! I live in North Carolina, USA. (My blog is http://24emmab.edublogs.org/page/2/) I love this blog post! It was so funny! I had never really thought of anything bad in Santa Clause’s life, only the good things! Today was rainy and kind of gloomy and this definitely brought out the sunshine!
I hope to see more blogs like this in the future!

Hi Claire,
I will be sure to go look on your blog and comment.
Dear Chloe,
I totally agree with you. I never thought that there would be disadvantages. I thought eating cookies was great but I guess you do have to work out.
