Labor Day Wishes




                  Labor Day Blessings 


        Congratulations to all who work.
        Oh, how I admire you and salute you.
        You, the opposite of the easy way out!
        Substantial citizens, one and all.
        You did not fall, to the freeloading call.
        Contributors to this great nation.
        Angels, you are, such a contribution!

Part of a strong society is about people working. We must not forget that. It is not about people staying home and collecting a government check.

Panagiota, Just returned home from work and the daily commute. Still living the rat race dream. Really nice to see a poem of appreciation. I say all working stiffs rock. -Richard

A wonderful tribute to those who labour Pangie, without the workers we couldn’t exist as we do. Every job is important and every worker should be proud of themselves… Belle

Seems a give me, one would think for all. I have never wanted anything I could not work for -- unless a hand-up, that enabled me to work. And to beg for money at a subway entrance, instead of to borrow an unused broom is unfathomable. Go figure. Old school, I guess.

Price de Mino! We both are graduates of Old School University.L Rah, Rah! I remember so many years working two jobs. These days, all kinds of ways to get money from TE gov. I know twins in Chicago. They are 53 and never worked a day in their life, big as houses, too? LOL Pangie Greets to Princess Ila.

Right on, Pangie. The blue collar folks are the ones who shaped this nation, not the politicos -- Here in Colorado, they cut off the special unemployment pay and some who have been receiving it are unhappy that now they will have to get off their butts, find a job and get to work! Bob

Bob, nationwide unemployment ends, that was a pinheaded plan Don’t worry, they will dream up another Socialist Wonder for the lazy ones. People with backbone do work and are proud. Pangie

Without our workers we'd have nothing and life would be difficult for sure. Tom

I cannot imagine a thing WOUKD be done, a salute to all who work, so hard to make this world liveable. School teachers, nurses, all who work in factories, farmers., bless them all. Panagiota xx
