It's Labor Day Weekend in the U.S.

Not sure why more companies don't use this weekend to thank their staff members.

I’m surprised every year that is isn’t treated as a significant opportunity to thank the people who work for and with you.

The people I work with aren’t all in the U.S.; here’s my message to them this year:

This is Labor Day Weekend in the U.S.

Labor Day is a widely-celebrated American holiday. For many, the day marks the end of summer and the beginning of the school year. But beyond the opportunity for indulging in barbecues and poolside gatherings, Labor Day holds significant historical weight. 

Many of us work. We don't need a holiday to remind us what work is and the difficulties and rewards that come with it. But through the course of a typical year, we don't often get the opportunity to reflect on why we do our jobs the way we do, where our current workers' rights came from, and the price that many people paid to secure those rights for us today. And that’s well worth remembering. 

Happy Labor Day!

Thank you for your hard work, dedication, and your many contributions to Adept's growth and goals. We’ve achieved a lot together in the past year, but without you, Adept wouldn't be the business it is. 

I’m grateful every day for the people I work with, and this Labor Day is no exception.
