[QUOTE="Retired Educator, post: 250911, member: 3373"] My wife has worked virtually every other Sunday for the past 40+ years, as well as at least 1/2 of the traditional holiday. Wasn't unusual for our kids and I to spend Christmas Day fishing during the day and spending family time that evening when their mom got home from work. Missing all those Sundays and she was still very active in the church. Attending when she could and very active in the various women's organizations. Her work never interfered with her religion. So working on Sunday interfering with family time carries no weight with me. It make no sense that I can go into a convenience store on Sunday morning and buy a box of shotgun shells but I can't go into the local hardwire store to buy an identical box of shells. Since I was a little boy, more than 60 years ago, we would sometimes stop, maybe once a month or less, in a restaurant for breakfast or dinner after church. If I remember correctly someone was there to cook that meal as well as someone to wait on us and I'm guessing someone was washing dishes. Sunday opening is not new to this state, it just redefines who can be open. I really don't like shopping, but sometimes when I need something it would be nice to have a place to buy it when I need it. [/QUOTE]
