True story - we had a Christmas party last Sunday, and when the folks were leaving, I told them "Happy Holidays". We're Christians, so my wife gave me a look that said I could do better by our friends, who also happened to be Christian. She had a point...
What can I say? I told her my broad wish for holiday cheer has nothing to do with Atheists demanding equal time at Washington state nativity scenes, and everything to do with working in a multicultural workplace. It doesn't bother me to go broad in the greeting, as a HR pro it's kind of second nature for me. Problem is, all my Christian friends don't swim in my HR waters - they just see CNN coverage of the Washington state atheists and think I'm trying to water down the holiday. Merry Christmas to you guys if you're reading, sorry for the secular moment.
Next time, I'll channel Frank Constanza and wish everyone a Happy Festivus - nobody gets their feelings hurt if you are channeling Seinfeld. Enjoy the video, and however you celebrate the holidays, be safe out there.
Also, check out the space below the video, We've dropped an image of a gift I've tendered in your name, Thanks for everything you do to make the Capitalist a groovy place to be...
