(1,989 posts)I've never had that happened with Merry Christmas.
I have had a "You're Welcomed"...really mean something else. I just tend to smile. It works wonders. I can't even say, Merry Christmas without smiling. But, after a long day of work, I could imagine being weary and the words losing meaning...if I'm getting cranky. And, with the commerciallization of the season, I could see being a bit cranky after greeting customers all day long.
I just tend to return greetings, although, is Merry Christmas a greeting, question. statement of well wishes??? I don't know. Not to mention...why would she say Merry Christmas in a defiant way to you? Did you have the look of scrooge? Was it a ...I dare you to have a Merry Christmas...Merry Christmas statement. Or, was she expecting you to say...I rebuke Christmas and small puppies. (I'm just kidding)
Hopefully, that lady will have a better day tomorrow.
