Easter Holidays !?
This is pretty much aimed at the banks. I’m not sure about other countries but, Friday and Monday with no banks is a complete disgrace. I know its always been like this and the majority of people just don’t care which is fine but, its really the principle behind it.
The whole world is slowed down or cannot work as optimally because of a Christian holiday. I’ve got nothing against Christians but, it is forcing Christianity on you in a way. This post isn’t meant in a disrespectful way but, religion is not about imposing your beliefs on other people. Well I don’t think it should be anyway I’m sure there are some crazy interpretations out there.
Aside from the fact not everyone is Christian and those who are Muslim or Sikh or whatever are forced to stop while this holiday goes on . Who thought not working and a complete decline in productivity (In the UK anwyays) is a great way to worship God ? Its the most retarded way to worship someone ever. When does gratefulness / worship ever manifest itself through inactivity ?
The on top of all of this you’ve got the real Christians who actually care about wht Easter stands for having their holiday hijacked by corporations. I’m not really sure of the financial incentive for banks, if a Bank stayed open the same hours as a supermarket I’m sure the benefits would outweigh the cost (Although why have they not done it yet ? ) I’d definitely sign up the day it opened. I mean the easy answer is to say the banks keep money for longer but, they also don’t receive money so if everyone changed to being open at decent times whats the difference ? Salaries I guess but, it is honestly just ridiculous.
Anyway, the reason I’m particularly anti-bank at the moment is that my ad money can’t get out to 2+2 until Tuesday and obviously its an international transfer so who knows when its getting there.
Its really my fault for not planning ahead and reminding myself banks are a law unto themselves and greedy twats. Its a huge industry and I guess because its turned into a cartel in a way when it comes to opening hours. Its not like there is a better option.
Christianity isn’t even a religion that has anything against banking, charging interest or even gambling so I don’t see why the banks shutting in particular is a mark of respect.
