It is not actually friday. Send union to fix plz!
Sing along: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J56IicSNuEY
As a union man I'm wise
To the lies of the company spies
And I don't get fooled by the factory rules
'Cause I always read between the lines
And I always get my way
If I strike for higher pay
When I show my card to the Scotland Yard
And this is what I say:
OHh....
I'll skip god and thank the union directly
Totally agree!
That should just be my go-to:
Thank the unions for that
Yes we should make it a thing
Let's bring it down to 3 now.
What if my god is Uniono, god of higher wages and more days off?
Oh, a member of the conservative svhism of uniono. The original was into synficalism and owning means of production.
HERETIC
~~revisionist!~~ at least im not going to ~~hell~~ a right-to-work state.
true that
Skip the middleman and thank the union and working people who fought the battle.
checks calendar
I thought about waiting till Friday… but then I also wanted to mess with people.
but then I also wanted to mess with people.
Amongst the top drivers of human achievement 😁
~~id rather thak tge unions directly.~~
id rather thank the unions directly

mb i just woke up when i wrote that comment
I think saturdays used to be workdays too.
We need to turn fridays into another case like that.
Yes they did.
Probably Sundays too going further back. Was likely one of the big draws that was built into Christianity.
Brb. Making a 3 day work week religion. Tithes are now 5%, but tax deductible as if it were 25% !
That predates christianity, judaism already had sabbath. I wonder if that was an original feature when judaism first came into existence or if the concept of a regular rest day is even older.
"Believe our religion and get one guaranteed day off every 7 days, attendance and payment of tite required for elligibility. Must pretend god is real."
So it's unions to blame that I have 48 directionless hours where I end up destroying myself and alienating people?
It’s the unions that made it so you’re not working 100 hours a week and living in a coal and smog infested rat hole
If it wasn't for unions I could be working during religious holidays! Not working is communism.
you can take shifts on the weekend it isn’t illegal
Personally I just go pillaging or tie dye stuff when I get antsy on weekends and other days off 🤷
I just knit. I have so many shawls and scarves…
I thought the title said onions
Onions have layers.
Unions have layers.
Same difference 🤷♂️
Same. Those also contribute more to Fridays being enjoyed than the imaginary sky daddy ever did, though 🤷
Work existed before mechanical time keeping, and it sounds like it was waaaaay better than:
