Of course you don't get it. You're too short sighted. At one time labor laws were virtually nill in the United States. It took Unions standing up for workers rights to set a work week and manditory time off. Yes, today most businesses function along these set standards....and yes many union shops have contracts wherein members work weekends. But truth be told....if it wasn't for the labor movement and the stand that Unions took against an abusive labor system you'd be worked like a dog.
If you're thankful for a weekend....thank a Union.
Unions...the people who brought you "the weekend".
