I'm with you, however there *are* people who don't celebrate Christmas who
might want to go out to eat. And this year it's Friday night, normally a
BIG ticket night for restaurants.

I wish those who have to work on what they would consider a holiday would be
paid extra for doing so. Unfortunately, in my experience, they are usually
told show up for your shift or find another job.
