You may be off today, like me, taking advantage of a three-day weekend. In my case, I'm nursing a cold. Nonetheless, I'm grateful to have the day to get better and not have to use sick leave or PTO.
Which brings us to Labor Day.
The strides that have been made, the steps we still need to take to make working in America, fair and just for all. We've come a long way since the late 1800s when the first Labor Day holiday was celebrated in America, but there's much to be done.
Women, by far, while still earning less than men on an average are doing jobs that back then we could only dream we would see being held by women. Even the role of the secretary has evolved. Yes, I said that.
Wherever you labor, whether you're a 9 to 5'er, shift-worker, blue collar, pink collar, white collar or no collar, I hope you're having a fantastic day.
