An open letter

Dear construction company who did a fine job on a project for me this summer but whom I won't be hiring or recommending again,

Yes, I understand that you experience it as "fun and festive" to dress up your employees to pose in a creche scene and then send a photo as part of a "Merry Christmas" card to your customers.

I understand that you belong to the majority religion in this area and therefore have trouble imagining that someone might not be delighted to receive a religious Christmas greeting, even in fun.

However, I do expect you to be courteous and receptive when I phone and let you know that in fact there are people on your mailing list who are not Christian and do not want to receive Christmas greetings.

Thank you for removing me from your Christian-only mailing list,
Sonia

I usually just recycle them myself. Unopened.

But yeah, very frustrating, and incredibly RUDE, aren't they?
