Welcome to Toni Taddeo's Tuesday 4 where we ask 4 questions every week.
Labor Day is Monday, Sept. 7. The original Labor Day was September 5, 1882 when over 10,000 workers took to the streets to protest 12 hour work days for low wages and cruel practices of employers.
The first official Labor Day was on September 7th in Oregon.
President Grover Cleveland signed on for the first offical federal observance of Labor Day following the Pullman Strike in which government forces shot dead many unarmed workers strking over dramatic wages cuts and dramatic cost of living increases in a company town. Workers pay was cut 30% and they could not afford basic food. When a group of men tried to negotiate with Pullman, they were fired and 34 of them were unalived by government forces.
1. How do you observe Labor Day and were you aware of the background of it?
We took the day off and did nothing.
2, Many holidays become just a day off rather than a real commemoration of an event.
How do you propose we can remedy that?
make a special day of it.
3. What is the most labor intensive job or activity you have done?
working retail stocking shelves.
4. If your income was cut by 30% could you still survive? What would you do?
Yes, Now that Im retired i look for free things and always shop sa;es.
