I’ve about had it with this crap of “happy holidays” versus “merry christmas”…so I’m gonna put my foot down.

I was sitting at my desk at work, and a couple new reps were brought out to sit with me to observe me doing my job, and I was showing them my first “welcome” email that I send to my potential students, and in my “current” version, I have the sentence below:

It’s Christmas Time, and there’s no better present to give yourself than an education and a better career for you and your family!

This new rep saw that and gasped, saying something like “You should probably change that to ‘Holiday season’ shouldn’t you?  I mean, you don’t know what sort of person you’re sending it to or how they observe the holiday season…”

Give me a break.  It’s Christmas to me, it’s Christmas to the majority of my students, and even if it’s not, they should get what I mean.  I’ve about had it with being politically correct when it comes to Christmas.

If Bush says “Merry Christmas”, I’m saying “Merry Christmas”.
