I do not know about 'hate' but I do not like the holidays and haven't since my teens.
Over the years the reasons have changed. My current one, and it's been solid for the past decade is..
Christmas, and the holidays from Thanksgiving through Jan 1st fuck up my sales, and business. The business hours for various companies, banks, etc get fucked and their hours. People always hurting for cash, so you have to wait 'til Jan to close deals. People boo fucking hooing about their gifts and greed.
