A Republican World – ‘Conservative Think Tank Boycotting Labor Day By Going To Work On Monday’
‘Washington-based conservative think tank, Freedom Foundation,
says its employees are refusing to take Monday off for Labor
Day because of that holiday’s association with labor unions’.
‘That’ll show ‘em’!
‘The pro-business conservative group announced that its workers
will participate in a “work-in” all day instead of the
traditional Labor Day activities of grilling, going outside,
and visiting with friends and family’.
‘Freedom Foundation’s CEO, Tom McCabe, went on to explain’ :
“I can’t think of a problem in society that can’t be traced in
some way back to the abuses of organized labor, and it would be
hypocritical of us to take a day off on its behalf.”

Anyone want to place bets on whether their collecting time and a half (or doubletime) for working on a holiday?
Also their Washington DC ofice deals only with corporations….who’s offices are closed today……..
Paying people to sit around at time and a half to do nothing…….
Oh – The Republican House of Representatives!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Let the folks at Freedom Foundation work today. And their kids too. Me, I’m enjoying my “liberal leave.”
Me too and thanks to climate change, we finally have our ‘Summer’ weather in September.
Somebody tell them that 40 hour work week and paid vacation are also associated with unions.
