Citing the day-in, day-out grind of waking up early every morning and plugging away nonstop to find a job, Americans across the nation are spending their Labor Day taking a well-deserved day off from looking for work. Whether its spending time at the park, firing up the grill, or simply enjoying a relaxing day inside watching television, U.S. citizens, who reportedly work an average of eight hours a day searching for employment, said they were glad to take some time off from the near-constant pressure of their job hunts. Its definitely good to recharge, said unemployed operations manager Rob Wilkes, 44, who vowed to relax and not send a single looking-for-work-related email the entire day. I honestly cant remember the last time I took a day off from trying to find a job. Added Wilkes, Labor Day last year, maybe? Stating how important their finding a career is to them, Americans admitted it would be somewhat difficult to completely tear themselves away from various work-seeking responsibilities that typically pop up during the day, such looking through the classified sections of multiple newspapers, and blindly sending out dozens of resumes and cover letter. However, citizens maintained that their lives cant just revolve around their job search, and that it's essential to take some time away from the gruelingand some would say mind-numbinghours spent staring endlessly at a computer monitor displaying Monster.com and LinkedIn. Moreover, for the entire day, Americans have vowed to completely avoid discussing the subject of finding work, and just enjoy hanging out with friends, relatives, and recently laid-off coworkers. Im constantly in looking-for-work mode, said former market researcher Amanda Cooper, adding that Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. till 6 p.m. she can be found glued to her bedroom desk trying to find a job. But you know what? Its Labor Day. Im not going to think about all the follow-up phone calls I have to make to potential employers, or how Im behind on updating my CV. In fact, there is a job application to Burger King sitting on my kitchen table right now, and itll just have to wait until tomorrow. Im just going to sit back, relax, and watch a movie, Cooper continued. Mainly because I cant really afford to go anywhere or do anything. Though the U.S. populace is content to take the day off, citizens have confirmed that because of Americas now well-established looking-for-work ethic, come tomorrow morning theyll be back at it.
