Today is Labour day, and therefore I do not labour. Apparently it marks the end of summer and holliday season, as well as the time to wear white. When do you get to start wearing white? So many questions unanswered.
Clearly this is a national holiday and it all started in the 1880thies with some striking in Canada some ten years before that to get a 58 hour work week. That is interesting: if everyone worked more than 60 hours per week in the olden days what did they actually accomplish? Yes we stand on the shoulders of our predecessors, but what was the efficiency back then? How efficient are we today? I tried a few googles on this matter and all I get is a bunch of tips on how to get more efficient. But I am looking for the hard facts as well as a definition of work efficiency. Somehow you would think that Speedy Fred would have set something like that up when he started... If anyone has input on this please let me know!
