Welcome to Labor Day 2021, workers and robots....

Last week, we asked: What songs define work in America? ([link removed])

Your answers included classics by Woody Guthrie, Sam Cooke, and The Beatles. And, of course, Dolly Parton's "9-5," Huey Lewis & The News' "Workin For A Livin," and Johnny Paycheck's "Take This Job and Shove it."

There weren't only suggestions from the previous century. You also suggested recent(ish) tunes: Breaking Benjamin's "I Will Not Bow," Rihanna's "Work," and First Aid Kit's "Waitress Song."

And so, without further exposition, here's the (in-no-ways concordant, sometimes explicit) compilation of your responses ([link removed]) ...

The Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) on Friday released its jobs report for August 2021, which found the U.S. economy added 235,000 jobs and the unemployment declined by 0.2 percentage points to 5.2%. The report falls short of the Dow Jones forecast.

The report comes after about 1 million jobs were added in each of the last two months, and means the U.S. economy has recovered about 75% of jobs lost during the pandemic with 5.3 million left to be regained.

Professional and business services added 74,000 jobs, with the largest gains in architectural and engineering services (+19,000) and computer systems design (+10,000). The sector is down 468,000 jobs compared to February 2020.

The number of long-term unemployed is 2.1 million higher than in February 2020. Long-term unemployed accounted for 37.4% of the total unemployed in August.
