I agree with all these points about Christmas being called what it is
etc. etc. etc. But on a humorous note, a few years ago when the cashier
at a local department store wished me a merry Christmas, I replied (just
for the hell of it because I'm not Jewish) "Thanks!, And a happy
Hanukkah to you!"  To which she replied, almost like she was embarrassed
"Oh no, I'm not Jewish!"  I guess it goes both ways sometimes.  And yes
I know this was an anomaly, I just thought it was funny.

Some years back, different company, HR stopped objecting to my group
saying "Christmas" in exchange for me not going absolutely batshit crazy
over any and all mentions of any other holiday, such as diwali, etc.

gotten several others involved.  We're having to call them "holiday"
lights, so as not to "offend" anyone.  We also have a small, 3' fiber
optic tree, and some garland to finish it off.
        
        Was just curious if you guys were allowed to do anything like
that.
