Happy Labor Day

Enjoy your Labor Day!

Thank a Labor Union for things like weekends and days off. Andrew Carnegie did not allow such luxuries at his steel mills in Homewood, PA, three miles down the Monongahela from Pittsburgh. Steelworkers toiled seven days a week in 12-hour shifts for Carnegie. Carnegie required them to move from days to nights or nights to days by pulling a 24-hour shift every two weeks. (SOURCE)

Today, remember the Amalgamated Association of Iron and Steel Workers Union members whom the Pinkertons shot dead in Homewood, PA.

And enjoy your day of rest from your labors.
