Once again Conservatives define "Family Values" as working the holidays for lousy pay.
It seems the only "Families" Conservatives value are the families of the owners and the only thing they "Value" is more profit.
So hospitals, police, fire and rescue take the day off?
These stores are creating shopping opportunities durning family holidays. They are eroding family experiences simply to raise profits. When the stores were closed on holidays, no one seemed to mind. But holiday shopping on Thanksgiving Day is an invention of retailers, not consumers.
Employees are asking for fair pay in exchange of their family holiday.
Conservatives are opposing both fair pay and the idea of a family holiday experience. Gee. Who'd a thunk it? Conservatives positioning themselves in favor of the owners and opposed to the worker and then, screwing that worker out of family time.
What do these Conservatives value? Certainly not working to earn a living, Conservatives feel the only honorable way of making money is by making a killing in the market, certainly not working to earn it. And do Conservatives 'Value' families? Hell no! Unless you want a family that does not dovetail into the narrow, archaic template of 'Family' the myopic Conservatives approve.
I worked every holiday for over 10 years, no big deal. Holidays are overrated, never understood why anyone had to make a special day for a "family experience".
I made family days all year long, I never needed a special day, for a "family experience."
I did have Thursday off this year, we lounged around and then went to an early afternoon movie, got Chinese food and went home.
Next week we have relatives coming to visit, we'll have our "family experience" then.
