[Misc] Happy International Workers' Day

[Herr Tubthumper]

The first day I look for in the calendar, the day when us workers can rest and take a brief break from the sweat and toil which is our labour.

Germany today is a public holiday, and in a special show of solidarity, I allowed the cleaner to switch her usual Wednesday slot to yesterday; she can now join in the celebrations.

Lay down your tools and have a wonderful day.

Self employed mate, work most public holidays.

I'm off with a sickness bug, can I claim it back?

 

[The Clamp]

Over 2 hours until I can go home.

Night off tonight though.

Happy Beltane for those still following the old religion

(and raising a glass to my mum on what would have been her 94th birthday)

 

[Hamilton]

Will there be flags in Brighton or are they IGNORING this day too?

Bloody woke council!

That takes me back to Patcham Junior School in the 1950's when under Miss Horsley (the headmistress) the maypole came out on May 1st and classes took it in turn to dance around it.

Zero hours unfortunately, but a hard fought for holiday enjoyed by many millions across the world.
There was a great US car sticker in my neighbourhood 'The Labor movement, the guys that gave us the weekend.'

Comrades, never forget - the workers united will never be defeated.

Isnt it law that most workers are not allowed to work a bank holiday in Germany ?

Kind of, there’s the Ladenschlussgesetz which is a law which prohibits “retail stores” opening on Sundays and public holidays. This prohibits most, if not all, shops opening today. Most businesses, beyond retail, will be shut today though.
