In todays US laborers are not treated with the respect they earned in the day. 9 to 5 is BS now. Today it's 24/7. For they many do not get paid overtime or holiday time1 /2. Decent time for meals and/or breaks are in the past. Eating lunch at your desk or during a conference call is common norm. Health care costs rising, pension plans being reduced or eliminated for both current and retirees, getting stiffed or laid off due to age or overqualified. This includes college/high school grads working minimum wage or
working 2-3 jobs to put food, shelter and clothing for their ******. Now we have ******* workers, underpaid teachers, unemployment benefits, brick and motor workers being laid off and manufacturers/customer service people being overseas. The biggest sin is when corporations lay payoff workers without informing them and do not pay their earned wages. How about checking e-mail, text, voice mail, conference calls or called back to the job while on VACATION!! I am sure there are those who don't take vacation/personal day off due to feeling guilty of non-performance. The ass kisser gets points and the dedicated hard worker get's dick.
Labor Day today is a farce. Change it to something else, eliminate this BS/PC day off until the American worker is truly celebrated and honored. Today, it is a joke.
