Fucking ignorant turd!
one of my bosses was just asking me when I was going to be taking time off for Christmas.
English is not his first language so we were slapping back and forth about what days would I be taking off dec 24-25 or dec 25-26. I didn't really care which of those, I usually take Sundays off anyway so the 25-26 was an extra day and kind of appealing.
Then he asked me what day was Christmas on......
I thought i misunderstood him, the whole lost in translation thing
but no he was really asking me that
I said Dec 25 and thought well D'oh
and who is the ignorant turd in my story?
ME!
It turns out they celebrate Christmas on Jan 7th, a huge area does too and I had no idea!!
so how alone am I? did anyone else realize this fact, that other people celebrated the exact same Holiday on very different days?
