Veterans are solid and so are healthcare workers who step it up during a pandemic. It’s OK that people appreciate both.

They signed up for it and got paid. No extra admiration is warranted.
Some of you act like gratitude or admiration costs money.

We have a holiday already to support their services. It’s called Labor Day . . .

Eliminate Veterans Day. They got their money for their service.
MANY of us were DRAFTED. I didn't ask for it. I didn't even want to go.
And the pay. About 1/3 of what I got the first month back in a civilian position.
I don't give a ratzazz if anyone doesn't appreciate me serving 2 years in infantry but try to at least learn what you are talking about before writing some dumb shite like harmdealer.

I’m sure . . from Department of Labor website:
quote:
Labor Day, the first Monday in September, is a creation of the labor movement and is dedicated to the social and economic achievements of American workers. It constitutes a yearly national tribute to the contributions workers have made to the strength, prosperity, and well-being of our country.

I picked up some litter yesterday. Can I be a hero too?

Okay, but not all jobs include heroism within the job description. So we still need a day to recognize everyday heroes over welders and the like. I mean welders fulfill an important role but the workers at Rouse's braved the coronavirus to make sure I could get meat, bread, produce and soda.

There's got to be a comedian in every crowd.

Ya know comedians are heroes too now that I think about it. You have to be #BRAVE to get up there and #SpeakYourTruth.
