A couple of thousand people gathered Tuesday afternoon at the Haymarket Riot Memorial Sculpture on Des Plaines Street in Chicago's West Loop to celebrate the traditional workers May Day..
Speeches were given and music was played. The usual festive type of atmosphere seemed to be absent this time. People were angry over the actions of the Trump administration directed towards the working class in general, and immigrants..
Billionaire J. B. Pritzker, candidate for governor of Illinois, put in an appearance, He was supported by local union members carrying signs that read 'We Rise With J.B.'. His presence sparked some vocal opposition from people who felt that 'this is a working class event and a billionaire has no business being part of it'. Some shouting occurred between the two camps, but other than that things remained peaceful.
The march went down Washington Street then shifted over via LaSalle Street to the State of Illinois Thompson Center on Randolph Street where another rally was held.
To me, what symbolized the event and the message being broadcast on the many signs people displayed, was Felipe the Ice Cream Seller. Pushing his cart loaded with tasty frozen treats, he accompanied the marchers from Des Plaines Street all the way to the Thompson Center. It was a warm day with temperatures in the low 80s. It's been a long time since Chicago has had a day that warm. Needless to say Felipe did a lot of business. He works out of the Paleteria 2215 S. Kedzie Avenue in Chicago's Little Village neighborhood. Apparently, a paletero can earn up to $30-$60 a day pushing that cart around. It's a heavy cart too. I had a chance to talk to him a little bit. A very nice man. Just doing his best to earn a living. An excellent example of what the working class is all about.
GI dock workers of the Port companies created order out of cahos at Calcutta's great docks and thousands of tons of vital war supplies flowed through to china, Burma and India. The MP is on hand to see that the coolies do not pilfer from the rations they are carrying.

Expecting and nursing mothers require social protection but workers in the informal economy are often not covered. Maternity protection has been a primary concern of the ILO since its creation in 1919. Workplace support for mothers who are breastfeeding has been a basic provision of maternity protection.
The Philippines expanded maternity leave benefits in 2019 to align with international labour standards. The ILO also promoted exclusive breastfeeding in the workplace to advance women’s rights to maternity protection and to improve nutrition security for Filipino children.

I did my first drawing of roadworkers in August 1963 and I'm sure that most of those men in their cloth caps are now past and gone. Forty-six years later and I'm still fascinated by them.
This morning, the road's been re-gravelled further up from the house here in Brittany, and although from the window I can't see to draw the workmen , they kindly left me this tipper-truck across the street!

"1975 yılında Antalya'da meydanın ortasında "işçi ve çocuğu heykeli" yapıyorduk. Halk bana model durdu. Kahveci çırağını o çocuğun portresi olarak yaptım. Halk da heykelime çok sempati duydu. Halk benimseyince adı "Kara Ali'nin Oğlu" konuldu. Hatta heykeli yaparken herkes gelip bana heykelin anlamını soruyordu. Aynı anda ressamlar da duvarlara resimler yapıyorlardı. Bir baktık bir gece bütün resimlerin üzerine boya atılmış, benim heykelimi aşağıya indirip kırmışlar. Heykelim 3 parçaya ayrılmış. O anda çocuğum öldürülmüş gibi oldu. O hırsla "Bu heykeli demirden yapacağım ve artık kimse kıramayacak" dedim. Heykeli yeniden yapmak için gece gündüz çalıştım. Bu kez de o zamanki AP Belediyesi elektrikleri kesti. Her yerde elektrik yanıyor, biz belediyenin önünde çalışıyoruz, elektrik yok! Günde 15 saat çalışarak heykeli bitirdim. Sonunda betonun üzerinde uyuya kalmışım. Şu anda heykel Antalya Parkı'nda denize karşı çok güzel bir yerde... 12 Eylül'ün hışmından halk sahip çıktığı için kurtuldu." (~Mehmet Aksoy arkitera.com/h60083)

Iron Workers from Local 7 are on the job at the Brigham and Women's construction site. It was pretty cold but I am sure that these guys have worked through a lot worse. Some of the pictures have good views of the workers' safety equipment.

Finished building the mobile worker I was working on. It isn't supposed to be a perfect replica, sorta my take on it. Plus there's the modular segments that I want to incorporate into my mocs.
Anyways, suspension on all three tires work, and there is a small removable block in the top where you can place another minifig. The cockpit holds a minifig too.
At 42, Edna understands that leaving one’s child in the care of another takes a lot of trust. Because of Edna’s experience in childcare, her employers who are young parents, hold her in high regard. With all the time she spends taking care of her employer’s child, there’s a whole other bond formed between the two of them. In turn, her employer makes sure that she is adequately compensated and her service to the family is celebrated.

In the full heat of summer, workers will collect water to help cool the nest by evaporation. The wasps are very nimble: one of these is actually standing on the surface film while she drinks.
