    Thank the unions for that

  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% !

      “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.”

      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.

  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…

  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

  • aBundleOfFerrets@sh.itjust.works ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

    you can take shifts on the weekend it isn’t illegal

    If it wasn’t for unions I could be working during religious holidays! Communism.

  I thought the title said onions

  source

  • Kolanaki@pawb.social ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

    Onions have layers.

    Unions have layers.

    Same difference 🤷‍♂️

  • Viking_Hippie@lemmy.dbzer0.com ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

    Same. Those also contribute more to Fridays being enjoyed than the imaginary sky daddy ever did, though 🤷

  What if my god is Uniono, god of higher wages and more days off?

  • outhouseperilous@lemmy.dbzer0.com ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

    Oh, a member of the conservative svhism of uniono. The original was into synficalism and owning means of production.
