Labor day

It's the First Monday of September, it means Labor Day.

"Labor"(Lavoro in Italian) is a Latin word meaning "Toil","Trouble".

The origin could be "Labi" used to indicate somebody who was hunched because of fatigue but it is just a theory.

Common words that derive from "Labor" are "Collaborate" and "Elaborate".

So don't forget to stand straight and collaborate.

Enjoy your holiday.
