...and thanks to globalization, some of us now have TWO forty hour workweeks!
Time for some international workers unions I think to help the people PB was talking about.
swinebread:
this has nothing to do with Labor Day, but I found this .
Wobblies forever! Wish we actually had some Worker-themed activities....but since May Day got taken over by the Russians, only Canadians really get to remember workers w/parades and such...
I guess the English Maypole fun type of May Day is the only one we'll be having here in the states....
panda - …and soon at half the pay!
snab – an IWS is the way to go but the American union were too stupid to recognize this and now they might have missed their chance.
arkonbey – thanks! I was happy to learn there are still plans to publish the Captain Carrot Showcase… but it all depends on the sale of the sales of the mini-series.
LB – Yeah, workers are evil, it’s those glorious CEOs that REALLY work hard.
