Just wanted to thank everyone on the board. We all contribute to this country and some of you guys like Ted and Arch truly do some blue collar work.

So shout out to everyone, and enjoy the day off/weekend.

Don't forget the white collar guys and girls. They work hard for their money as well.

It takes all types, be it plumbers, Dr's, carpenters, lawyers, warehouse workers, postal drivers, pharmacists, longshoremen, butchers, farmers, steel workers, stock brokers, nurses, truck drivers, coporate exectutives, accountants, guitar players, police officers, firemen, deep water fishermen, restaurant managers and workers, grass cutters, politicians, brick layers, lab tech's, dentists, cashiers, and last but not least, the garbage pick-up driver.

It takes all of our labor to make this great country work. Everybodys effort is needed

Happy Labor Day. Thanks for your contributions.


We all depend on each other. We might need to remember that.

Yean, sitting in an air conditioned office, at a computer is such hard work, I work in a diesel shop, and the biggest thing the people up in the office deal with is the A/C being too cold and they have to wear a sweater in the summer .

Good gosh man, you are a real work of art. If you don't think everybody works for their money, except for the welfare folks, you have a problem.




Go Away. Really.

Who said a word about welfare folks? Or is that what your snobby ass correlates the working man too?

I know all you cream puffs like to sit around and think you actually do hard work for a living, but come out with the actual men and you will wilt away.

Hey man, way to ruin a nice Labor Day thread by Swish. Good job.

Be proud. He and I honor all, you trash many. Are you mad I didn't mention deiesl mechanics.....consider it done. You choise your vocation. It it a honorable one.


It isn't my fault you seem to feel inferior and are ticked you don't have A/C in the work place.



Just saying.



Again, thanks for everybodys effort's, includig ticked off diesel mechanics.


It's not my fault you didn't make it with the Union. Blame them.



Go away.

Right on swish (even though I am working tomorrow)! It takes all of us to make this machine work. If rich people didn't own expensive homes, they wouldn't need me to paint them.

Cheers fellas!

Just remember, no one's job is any more or less important than someone else's. We all live in a society, and everyone has a role. Plus, I have to work on Labor Day, but it's ok, I choose too. I get double time for it.

make sure you guys also thank the people in their golden years, as though peeps are the reason we have what we have as today's active labor force.

just came back from kicking it with a few cool seniors at a senior living home. old ladies were kinda creepy with their flirting but it was really nice to chop it up with those guys.

I heard a story about a heart surgeon whose car was running rough, so he took it to his mechanic. The mechanic, taking note of the surgeon's late model Mercedes, and his fine clothes, said "The way I look at it, we have pretty much the same job. You fix hearts, I fix engines. I'll replace your fuel pump and clean your fuel injectors and your car will be good as new, but you make a million a year and I only make $80K. The heart surgeon looked at the mechanic and said gently "Do it while the engine's running and then we'll talk.".

You missed the second part of that story. Then the Veterinarian in the corner said, "I do the same thing, but my patients are all different species, and they can't tell me where it hurts."

You missed the third part.

The doctor had a home emergency and had to call a plumber on a Sunday.

The plumber fixed the problem in an hour and gave the surgeon a bill for $600.

The doctor said: “I’m a surgeon and I don’t make that much.”

The Plumber said: “Neither did I”.

Thanks man.

We took off for the weekend. As a rule, going away on a holiday weekend is rare for me/us.
