ression at all, and just wanted to sit on my shoulder (rather like a parrot) and look around. He’d snuggle against anyone’s neck or in anyone’s lap who would hold him and he adored being petted. Delores ran around digging for bugs in the lawn – but was just as happy sitting by the kitchen sink watching me trim vegetables or whatever. He made (as all my chickens did) a truce with the cats and was friends with the goats, horses and my other rooster, Gordon. They all slept together in the barn at night.

Why? Maybe the owner knows that all of the employees really need those extra wages to make sure that there are presents under the America 1776 Land Of The Free shirt for Christmas morning. Maybe all of the employees bought the presents days ago … using money for the utility bill that means a dark house before New Year’s Eve without some extra hours. Due to location (e.g., next to a very popular mall) it might mean that staying open on Christmas Eve is one of the biggest nights for waitstaff tipping the entire year. Most important of all. What business (in every sense of the word) is it of yours whether a dining establishment remains open on Christmas Eve? Are you a Christian theocrat? Do you advocate government control over commercial enterprises for the purpose of enforcing a given religion’s canonical dictates? If a business owner is paying employees their proper wages for that specific evening (or even holiday), you may wish to simply butt out and find something else to worry about.
