When I was an Amazon driver, holidays weren’t really holidays. Nobody gets paid holidays. If the holiday falls on a day that you’re regularly scheduled, you have to make up that day to get your regular weekly hours. Would it kill the company to give everyone real paid holidays? Happy Labor Day.

BEGGING. Be involved at local & state levels. So much of what we see at the national level starts at school boards, council chambers & state houses. But state & local is where your voice is loudest and most effective. And where we are more likely to put a stop to this stuff before it gets to SCOTUS

One lesser-known work, in which Graham Greene is featured, is a non-fiction book called North Spirit by Paulette Jiles. I highly recommend it as an incredible read, but also for the warmth and humor Greene's appearances bring to the story.
