I was always taught to believe it was Working class Public Holiday.
Happy May Day to everyone.
May Day was originally a pagan Holy Day that goes back hundreds of years. I thought it came from Britain but found out the Romans celebrated it. It is considered a secular public holiday for contemporary society.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/May_Day
Interesting. That it comes from the Romans.
I know the trade unions were very big on May Day. Because to them it was a Public Holiday.
And years ago, the trade unions were big supporters of any paid time off for the working class.
We seem to have lost so much Trade Union protection these days.
Psychics say they are going to be coming back strong.
But if we are heading towards any kind of change in how and when we work right now. Finland is leading the way.
As Finland’s young prime minister is trying very hard to introduce a 4 day working week .....in Finland.
And a 3 day weekend.
It’s part of a general shift to gettin real about work/life balance.
Companies talk about that concept all the time.
But they in no way support it in reality.
Which is why work/balance does not happen.
We are very overdue in this world for a reduced working week. And this big change.
Young people for hundreds of years have been spending their entire youth working. All the time.
Rarely relaxing enough to enjoy more of life.
As they should be.
Wish this change came in when I was young.
We would have loved it.
But these companies are going to have to face increasing wages. So employees don’t lose out on income. When this change happens in other countries in the future.
Eventually.
Good point. I wonder why May Day is used as a distress signal.
Strange.
The Darling Buds Of May was a good show.
Remember it launched Catherine Zeta Jones' career.
No one had even heard of this Welsh actress until that show.
And then she throws her young life away marrying a man so much older than her, actor, Michael Douglas.
Well I guess marrying him assured her a ticket to Hollywood. And American fame.
But it must be true love.
Cause she stayed with him.
Word has it Catherine Zeta-Jones is much older than she claims to be. Too many sources have repeated that rumor so I’m thinking where there’s smoke there’s fire.
