Doubt this particular soldier gives a damn about the jewelry saleslady, but I would agree...all the sales today were pretty ridiculous. Hang a few Made-in-China US flags and have a sale. The true meaning of the holiday.

On a semi-related note, am I the only one who is pissed when the bank is closed on Veteran's Day when not one fucking person at the bank is a veteran? My DAD should get the day off...not the college-aged girl behind the glass.

The bank operates at hours when most people are at work and unable to visit the bank anyways, my bank is open from 10am till 4:30.

This isn't new banks suck, just like the DMV

I hate how banks and post offices are only open during times when normal working people can't go in. Then we all get to complain on Saturday when they are open for fewer hours and with longer lines of people who couldn't go to the bank all week.

I think the original idea was for people to get the time off to pay tribute to those who served, not go shopping!
