The very same thing happened to me. I worked with a very nice gal-classy and very proper......when she got the Xmas card she looked like I had spit into her hand.

But why was it OK for her to give me a gift?


Please......I'd respect someone more if they acted like they enjoyed the card/gift, then tossed it or regifted the darn thing, You know, like go with the program for a miniute- I don't think your god would have any problem with boozing and eating a pork taco a few days outta the year....

It's kinda crappy to be confronted after a nice night out with your co-workers with a story about how you puked all night long because you cannot figure out how to spell P-I-G..

There is no cause for all the rudeness we see nowaways. I understand what you mean by respecting someone more if they act like they enjoy it. I also think it would be good if the person simply said, "Thank you but I don't celebrate Christmas. But thank you for the thought. I appreciate it." Then they wouldn't have to accept the gift and you would know for the next year.
