Oh wait, you said Christmas trees, I was thinking Krishna thieves. Sorry.
No.
Well, just another example.
KRLD this morning was talking about this. Chase is trying to back peddle and say it's not a problem with the fact that it's a Christmas tree, but the fact that it's too big for use at the branch.
Not sure I'm buying it...
I wonder who is doing the complaning as I was at walmart last night and they had hundreds of christmas trees outside and inside. Why not protest them and almost every other company or building/structure in America that has Christmas trees displayed this time of year.
Seems like the wrong part of the world to live in if holiday ornaments offend you. It would be like living in the middle east and being offended by turbins.
How can you be offended by a freakin' tree? Do those a-holes that are live in the desert? Ridiculous.
Most large companies these days will provide seasonal decorations to their retail outlets and have very strict guidelines pertaining to the use of non-approved decorations. While I am sure "offence level" is considered in the selection of these decorations, the policy itself has a lot more to with Brand Consistency (a big corporate buzzword these days). My guess is there was one PITA person that worked in the branch (every office has one) that was offended by it and ratted them out to the corporate marketing team.
The difference between a brown-noser and a s*** head is depth perception! Really?! Seriously?! Wah Wah Wee Wah... some people just don't get it for the better part of the population. Like Ringo says, "There's one in every crowd". Sooooo sad.
It's not a Christmas tree, it's a Holiday tree. Duh.
Sounds like we need the Airing of Grievances. Festivus for the rest of us!

I'm offended that they were offended. Give me money.
The Jews get Hanukkah.
The Blacks Get Kwanzaa.
Me, all I'm 'allowed' is"Happy Holidays"....
And to that I'll Wish you a MERRY CHRISTMAS
Political correctness bends over pleasing the minority, while punishing the majority.
:rolleyes:
Somehow, I'm oddly reminded of some lame, uncoordinated whiner who spilled some hot coffee, sued McD's over the affair, and got lots of money. Oh, wait, you mean it was HOT coffee? Why weren't we told?
Lame lame lame
