[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Where do you work? I'm Jewish and it has literally never been an issue. Some people show up in green or wear fun shamrock things - whatever. I do vaguely make sure my daughter has something green in her outfit since she's in elementary school. Can't imagine this being a thing as an adult. [/quote]

What the hell does your religion have to do with anything here?  Should I add....Well I'm gay and it's never been an issue or...well I'm Hispanic and it's never been an issue. What are you doing?[/quote]

Np - Jewish friends can correct me here, but from what I know many Jewish people don’t celebrate Saint Patrick’s day or Saint Valentine’s Day because they are holidays named after Christian saints. [/quote]

Most Jews I know aren’t so uptight that they can’t see those holidays as celebrated in the US are no longer religious in nature. My Irish cousins don’t celebrate St. Pat’s with as much gusto as we do here.

OP, you could be less uptight, too. No one is forcing you to wear green.[/quote]
