I was shopping at Zehrs on Lauzon Pkwy. and Tecumseh Rd. this morning getting ready for this coming holiday. I love the store and I shop there all the time. However, I noticed today their hours for this coming holiday. Open on Good Friday...what? No, I'm not happy about that... Of course it's my personal opinion but being closed for Good Friday and Easter is the right thing to do as an employer...providing it's not an emergency service.
And if you must open I would hope the employees that are working are the ones who want to be there...not the ones who have family and not the ones who want to celebrate the holiday. Sadly...I know this is most often not the case. No matter the holiday or religion behind it...people should be able to celebrate what they believe and hold sacred.
For Christians...tomorrow is a day of mourning and a day of great reverence...and Sunday a day of glorious celebration.
I see it everyday...wonderful acts of kindness. Stay closed...love and respect each other...an act of kindness. If, we don't do something now...holidays will eventually be a thing of the past...just like being closed on Sundays.
