Americans will attack other workers for minor differences in lifestyle rather than attack their boss for failing to provide basic quality of life in exchange for full time work.
Just like the ruling class wants…
Just because our cage is slightly nicer and we get fed slightly better slop doesn’t mean we’re not in this together.
Most of us are sticking with you … the real problem is the 1%
I mean y’all could stick it to the one percent by forgoing going to the store or eating out on labor day
PSA, Labour day is the first of may.
Weird. It was yesterday in Canada. Funny that.
Yes, let’s pit workers against each other, very helpful
it’s curious that the US does not observe it in that day since the events that commemorates it happened in Chicago, during a series of protests for a 8 hour work day.
But of course, that is not accident. They put a lot of effort in framing workers’ movements as a communist plot. At one point they even instituted a “loyalty day” on 1st of May to counteract any labour movement.
someone unironically told me yesterday ‘you must be so busy with everyone off!’
I WAS busy, nothing changed on my end compared to every other Monday of the year. which is basically I’m given a job that’s too much for one person, but I struggle to get help so often than even getting my legally required breaks can be like pulling teeth.
anyway I just said ‘except for me! (:’ and she didn’t say anything else after that.
it’s like these people forget that we too are humans working behind the counter. People that are WORKING on LABOR day.
Ignoring factory and warehouse workers as per usual
Which, I, personally, would say that have it the worst.
Yeah, they don’t even get great PR.
Idk the factory shut down for the holiday, just like every factory I’ve ever worked in. Yeah I’m an intellectual laborer, but the folks on the floor doing manufacturing also got the day off
Back in the day I worked in a plastic molding factory, on the workshop floor. Offices would get free days for everything and different stuff like food days, gifts for Christmas and other things while we got absolutely jack shit.
Yeah that’s bullshit of them. I’ve seen a lot of favoritism towards office workers in manufacturing, but never differing days off
It is, that was Schneider Electric which actually was one of the best treating factories around in that area. Nonetheless, few years later got out of that and opened my own business, moved from the workshop to web dev, but I can attest that being on the workshop floor was humiliating to say at least. If it weren’t for it to be so shite, I wouldn’t have pushed for my dream job.
Are you really going to gatekeep Labor Day, op?
No that’s what the middle class is doing, did you learn nothing?
“Fake email job” I guess this is just a weird spin on “office job”?
Yes, because we unionized. At least I did. With my beer. And my burger.
