Assholes forget that the combination of major religious and national holidays traditionally offered an important opportunity for families and friends to get together and celebrate. Therefore many places of business have been closed, in deference to the preferred wishes of employees and customers to do better things than conduct trade.
Sure, there has been a religious association with many of the days - Christmas, Easter - but Thanksgiving, New Year and Independence Day are among the days that very often saw closings.
Of course creeps and antisocial drabs their whims for fast food, cheap shoes, and whatever to be honored every day of the year. And they snivel that people still like to spend time together - or at least give it a shot in the name of tradition - one a few days in the year.

In the 1980s I was in a beryoshka shop in Central Asia, which was the Muslim part of the USSR. We had a translator and her assistant accompanying us.
I saw one of the shop workers motion to the assistant. The assistant went behind the counter and into a little back room where the shop worker surreptitiously presented her with a red egg. The assistant beamed, hugged her and whispered something in her ear. I realized it was Orthodox Easter weekend. I guess she'd whispered "Христос воскрес."

[quote] Elaborate Scenario Troll. That never happened, [R54].
Totally happened. 1983, when communism was king and the USSR forbade religion. I assumed the two women were Orthodox Christian.
I thought, "I didn't know they dyed Easter eggs different colors in this part of the world." I knew the Ukrainians and other people painted them with elaborate decorations. Later on, I found that orthodox religions only dye the egg red, no other color. It's supposed to symbolize the blood of Christ.
I was in Uzbekistan. There are Christians there. I just didn't realize it was orthodox Easter because I'd been in the USSR for a month and we'd already had Western Easter before I left the US. Before this happened. I'd always thought Western Easter and Orthodox Easter were only a week or two weeks apart. I didn't know there could be such a long difference between Easters. I didn't know western and orthodox Easter could be on the same day, either.

I used to work weekends when I was a nurse and Easter was a religious, but not a state or federal holiday. So I didn't get time and a half. Bummer.
