Company Greetings

I HATE getting Christmas cards from comanies.  I know I sound like Scrooge but I absolutely HATE it.  Way back when, it was first done an old fashioned company thought it would be a nice gesture to acknowledge the business from their customers.  This was because they knew all their customers by name and sight so it was a nice gesture.

Now it is a cheesy, insincere, ‘please keep giving us your business gesture’ by companies that would not recognise you  or know your name if you turned up stark naked wrapped in tinsels singing ‘Jingle Bells, every day until Christmas.

The cards are always glossy and expensive and I wish they would save the money and knock it off my bill.

Occasionally the signatures are printed photocopies or a printed ‘from all at…..’  Why would all at.’…….’ ever think that a card from them would make any difference to me.

Are there people out there who send a card back from ‘your grateful double glazing customer Mr Bloggs’ or ‘your newly divorced client, Mrs Bloggs?’

Christmas has enough insincerity and cheese without receiving cards from a company of strangers.
