Probably the first modern holiday that demonstrated how quickly we forget the why.

Probably the first modern holiday that demonstrated how quickly we forget the why.
It really is sad. It’s my second favorite holiday, right after International Workers Day
It's more of an observance day for many, which makes my point even more when most people think of Labor Day as a time to buy things on "sale".
I have never had a job where I am not required to work on labor day…
Sounds like you need a union
The giant fist of the end of summer?
Labor Day is celebrated this Monday in the US and Canada
The 5th of November, not September!

We get Labor Day, but not on May 1st. Can’t have any of that international solidarity, can we?

For a movement that started in Chicago, celebrated in the whole world on May 1st except in the US and Canada
