Tell that to the thousands of families where most people work all day 
and only get to see their kids at night.

If you do not want to work on Sunday, then don't work on Sunday. Part of 
allowing Sunday shopping can also be legislation that says you can't 
force someone to work all day Saturday and Sunday? Did you think of 
that? My girlfriend used to work in a tourist outlet that was open 
Saturday and Sunday - she was never forced to work both days. The same 
can be made law.

Besides there are plenty that will jump at the chance to work on Sunday.
