This is the official end to Summer - although we started school two weeks ago. I was surprised that with the emphasis on individual achievement, there was even a Labor Day, but I have been reassured that most blue collar industries have a union, they just don't feed into a 'labor party' but more into the Democrats, politically speaking.
As per usual, we used the long weekend as an opportunity to do Lots of Jobs. But what I noticed, when doing some jobs at the mall, is that many people here seem to use their public holidays to Go Shopping - and there are plenty of "Labor Day Specials" to encourage this.
