Working Christmas Day 2019

They have no idea what year he was even born. Between 2-5 BC is best guess. Doubt they have any idea Mary was told March 25.

I read that it could've been 7 BC but the article states that it was tradition that held these dates. I think that is plain.

Traditions that were based off pagan holidays. Most Christian holidays are closely associated to old pagan traditions that had existed for centuries before.

That way everyone stayed somewhat happy.

Not all of the Pagans are happy.

I would never be the driver trying to deliver peoples gift packages on Christmas Day and take the crap from the whole family why it didnt come on time. Some may be glad but not all would be very congenial. Some media reports say some packages are about a week delayed even though they're in the building in their area.

Most people would at first be surprised to see us and would then be thankful that we made the effort to "save" their holiday. It's one thing to hide behind a computer screen and criticize----it's quite another to do it face to face.

You want to meet face to face? Is that your proposition? Go fish old man.
You run your keyboard mouth on here criticizing posters on here daily tough man and your reputation is not favorable.

Now, back to the late delivery issue, I would be embarrassed to have to deliver on Christmas Day since it exposes the poor planning this company implemented this year. Ups used to be better than this. "A good value." Now, massive failures and higher pricing wont be a good combination.

Wake up grandpa. You're out of touch with reality.

I try to spend as little time in the hood as possible which is why I chose to live "just outside" of Albany (NY) in a racially sterile (no homies) 55+ community.

Read much?

What I said was the majority of people who bash delivery companies on social media would be quiet as a mouse if we were to knock on their door on Christmas Day with their presents.

I apologize. I'm read it differently.
And am used to you being belligerent.

We just got certified letters stating the 25th is a regular work day . All I want to do is be with my family around the Jesus manger!

 

[UnconTROLLed]

wouldn't a religious accommodation suffice?

 

[542thruNthru]

Come on.

Don't worry I'm pretty sure Jesus can take a joke.

 

[IVE GOTTA PACKAGE 4U]

You want a man bun too?

What's next? No shaving...

Calling off would be easier.

Yes and yes.

 

[542thruNthru]

Yes and yes.

I hope they take your guns away and leave you with your pathetic dull knife collection.
