Happy Labor Day 2024!
Happy Labor Day to everyone who performs their duties and services for the sake of mankind. In this blog I am including a quote from an edited version of another blog I wrote in 2019, Labor Day and a Personal Memorial Day.
“What is the meaning of Labor Day?
“Do you get weekends off work? Lunch breaks? Paid vacation? An eight-hour workday? Social security? If you said “yes” to any of these questions, you can thank labor unions and the U.S. labor movement for it. Years of hard-fought battles (and the ensuing legislation they inspired) resulted in many of the most basic benefits we enjoy at our jobs today. On the first Monday in September, we take the day off to celebrate Labor Day and reflect on the American worker’s contributions to our country.” https://nationaltoday.com/labor-day/
I Stopped Laboring for Predatory Company!
America celebrates Labor Day in honor of the working men and women who make America great. I will work today at a Goodwill of North Georgia store in McDonough, Georgia. (I quit Goodwill because I felt Goodwill become a predatory company, preying off customers and low-level employees with increased prices and low-wages, during a time when Americans are suffering from the effects of inflation.)
The work I did does not compare to work done by those who serve in the military, in America and abroad, as well as the emergency responders and all others who serve and protect the public. Pro-war, anti-war, anti-government, or whatever, in my opinion, those brave men and women deserve praise and to be honored; especially, the fallen men and women we celebrate on Memorial Day who gave their lives.
