Title: How do you handle "Happy Holidays' when you prefer "Merry Christmas?"

I work every year doing telephone order entry and answer calls from all over the nation. We are supposed to say, "Happy Holidays," but many make a point to subvert this by pointedly answering or wishing "Merry Christmas."

And they do it in a way that makes it plain they don't much like the PCness of Happy Holidays.

How do you deal with a clerk, salesman or someone taking orders who use the PC when you want it like you feel it or believe it?

Just curious. I have to go get back on the phones, but I would find it interesting to check out the group think here on this.

Happy Holidays folks. ;-)

I say "It is merry CHRISTmas, CHRISTmas, cause there aint no guy called holiday that ever went up on a cross for you and me. Then I cancel my order.

LL Bean used it as part of their training tapes a few years back. The next year they started having a Merry Christmas catalogue.

I walked out of a local restuant a year ago when the greeter said "Happy holidays come this way please." I said, "no thanks, it is CHRISTmas and if you're not smart enough to know that, your cook aint smart enough to feed me." And we, four of us, left.

I do the same thing at Easter.

Ah, good for you ! You make Jesus Soooooooooo HAPPY when you get all bitchy and haughty with sales clerks and hostesses about how holy you are !

I bet every one of those clerks quit their jobs right away and ran off to the nearest church to become a "Perfect ChristianTM" like you, since you set such a fine example !
