    Left the house to drive the partner to her parents house for some time with them.

    Bars were open. I feel sorry for the people who go to bars Christmas day and feel even sorrier for the staff who have to work Christmas day.

      I was a bartender last year. I worked every holiday. It didn’t phase me because I had nothing else to do. But if I had a life I would definitely make sure I didn’t work holidays one way or another, either demand it of my boss or get an entirely different job that respects humans.

        I salute the work you did. Service jobs should come with military-style awards. A Purple Heart for Bravery in the Face of a Drunk Karen, for example.

          Three slaps per year, doled out as you see fit.

          People would get real fuckin’ polite in December and January. Start-of-year, everybody’s got a full magazine. End-of-year… use it or lose it.
