Labor Day Mumblings

Post by Slinky » Tue Sep 03, 2013 11:10 pm

Am I the only one who is aggrivated that Google, year after year comes up w/these "cutesy" Google IDs for the 161st birthday of some relatively insignificant artist or author, etc., but has never in all my years using Google bothered to acknowledge Labor Day and those of us in the labor force, past and present?

I'd say it says pretty loud and clear just exactly what the nerds at Google think of the everyday peons going about their tedious jobs.

I sort of surf with blinders on; due to all the pop-ups, and "e-litter".
I just never noticed. Meh.
