First Austria, now the Czech Republic.
Labor unions in the Czech Republic demanded Monday that stores stop playing Christmas carols incessantly or pay compensation for causing emotional trauma to sales clerks.Have people really become such wussies that they can suffer severe emotional distress simply by hearing Christmas music? And apparently the two nations are forcing people to work in these stores against their will. After all, if they were really bothered by the music, they would just go get a different job, right?
Shit man, I should have sued when I worked for a grocery store as a teenager and they kept playing Celine Dion over the intercom. I'm pretty fucked up over that, to this day!
