The Current Situation Work

Happy Labor Day 2025!

I hope that:

  • If you have to work today: That work isn’t too busy or onerous today.
  • If you don’t have to work today: That you have a relaxing one.
  • If you don’t have to work today, but you’re working on your own thing: Hey, fellow hustler! Keep the faith, and don’t work too hard!
