Went to my bank 2 weeks ago. In their new list posted of days closed in 2022 they had Indigenous Peoples Day, 
I told them how insulted I was by this naming and the Least they could do is have both names on the day. 
The manager was surprised. 
And last week they changed it. 
Said I was the only person to complain. But I made sense. 
So Kick Up a Fuss!

    Security guards had their hands on unsnapped holsters while you talked. Just in case. Like at a school parents meeting.

    My wife’s company is doing a 3 hour webinar on social justice issues on Monday. She thought they had the day off. So, she was asking who the hell was going to sign up for it. Then…she found out they have to work. I told her to sign up for it…and just mute it. Three hours wasted is three hours paid.

    I’m glad I live in the free state of Alabama. We still have Robert E. Lee’s birthday as a state holiday.

    In their new list posted of days closed in 2022 they had Indigenous Peoples Day, I told them how insulted I was by this naming and the Least they could do is have both names on the day.  I would have insisted they change it to the more accurate "Conquered Peoples Day".

    since cancel culture is the latest fad we should just cancel the holiday and make everyone work...

    Why do you insist on abusing the news forum?I don't see where this post is abuse. With all your power, Mr. Moderator, if you're unhappy about the post couldn't you be a bit nicer? Perhaps you could be positive and suggest where you think she should put the post?

Today, you’re my hero because your comment made me feel good.
