Dear Carmen,On my very first business trip, I left my wallet in a New York taxi—with more than $200 in it. This was right after college, so that was a TON of money for me. And I thought it was gone for good. But then, he brought my wallet back.The taxi driver didn’t just call me. He braved rush hour traffic to bring back my wallet and didn’t charge me a dime.
I ♥ that taxi driver—and workers like him who go the extra mile for other people every day. And I just let the world know. Who do you “heart”? Tell us which workers you heart. Then, you can update your Facebook status through Labor Day and tweet about it (but you don’t have to use Facebook or Twitter to participate in our campaign). Maybe it’s Wisconsin workers. They braved the bitter cold day after day, week after week, to fight for workers’ rights. Maybe it’s coal miners. They risk their lungs and their lives every day to provide the power that keeps our country going. Maybe it’s the plumber who got your wedding ring out of the drain. What a huge relief that must have been. I’ve heard in some places sanitation workers have even gotten wedding rings out of the sewer. Amazing! Click here to take action. It takes about 15 seconds to let us know who you heart this Labor Day. In Solidarity, Manny Herrmann P.S. Please take action and tell us who you heart on Labor Day. Then forward our message to your friends and family so they can take action, too. P.P.S. See a weird symbol in this message, like a box? It’s supposed to be a heart symbol, but for a very small percentage of users, it appears as something else. |
