And anything else they hate,

Would all go away.
They should do their shopping online,
So then they won't be upset.
Then they won't get in my way,
So I'd do something I'd regret.
Moral of the story?
If you're going to be irritated by employees who say "Happy Holidays" instead of "Merry Christmas", then don't fucking go shopping.
