Good, fuck 'em. If they make people work on labor day, they need to go extinct.

You didn't read the article, did you?
Powell’s Books will close all three of its retail locations on Monday, Sept. 4 as its union members gather for a single-day strike in protest of the company’s negotiation tactics. According to ILWU Local 5, the labor union representing Powell’s workers since 2000, the business has “bargained in bad faith” by not engaging with union proposals and stalling the bargaining process.
Hey man. Not to shit on your biscuit, but in the traditional sense, retail isn't labor.
Retail and Service Industries deserve respect in their own right.
But this is Labor Day.
Work is labor. Trades aren't the only people who work for a living.
I'm not saying they don't belong to the working class, but they aren't labor.
That is the weirdest take
How so?
The working class is more than labor.
I worked retail for many years destroying my body and rarely if ever getting a federal holiday off. I now work for a job where I do very very little and regularly get federal holidays off.
Quit your bullshit, retail is absolutely labor and it can be absolutely grinding to do.
Retail can be hard work, of course.
But it isn't labor.
What kind of fucking corporate ass sucking mentality is that? Labor=work the whole point of labor day is to get a day off and remember those who lost their lives striking against corporate interests for the unions.
