I have a co-worker who is a very nice person, but she loves holidays. Loves them.
Dresses in a theme for Zoom calls, not just on the specific holiday, but for a couple weeks before. Talks about holidays every call - Christmas was nuts, my kids don’t get that excited. I haven’t worked with her long enough to see her celebrate her birthday, but suspect it’s one of those week-long events.
I am not a grumpy old fart but this annoys me. I don’t give a damn if Valentine’s Day is coming up in nine days. It doesn’t make Valentine’s Day a month-long event and you don’t need to change your Zoom background to a bunch of little sweethearts.
I would never say anything and play along to not hurt her feelings but come on already.
AITA?
