Labor Day, from the people who brought you the Weekend
A conservative co-worker is very anti-union, and he began talking about his labor day plans, and how much he was looking forward to them. I reminded him to toast the brave labor activists whose hard fought struggles brought us such modern advancements like the weekend, and minimum wage. :o

5. Anti-union folks take their freedoms for granted
They seem to forget people died so that they may have 40 hour weeks, minimum wage.
