#Vintage Labor Day Art - Things We Take For Granted: 8hr Workdays & 3day Weekends




"Without labor nothing prospers." --Sophocles

Read up on the History of Labor Day.
Once upon a time we didn't even have 8-hour workdays, or weekends, let alone 3-day weekends: "The eight-hour day movement forms part of the early history for the celebration of Labour Day, and May Day in many nations and cultures." (More about the Eight Hour Movement here.)

Enjoy your holiday weekend -- then back to work we go!
