It seems you are understaffed. You should hire some additional help next time to help you during christmas time.

I was reluctant to do so in the past myself, because I feared it would be more of a burden than help, because usually it takes some time until everything goes smoothly with new staff. But this year I did and let them do jobs only that do not require any training. Only packaging, no picking, not anything else.
