WHY the Smiley? Lots of people ask us “What in the heck does a SMILEY FACE have to do with Credit Card Processing and why does everything TMC does, have a Smiley attached to it?”- we love the question and here is the simple answer. MOST business owners do not find JOY in working with their credit card processor- in fact, quite the opposite! So when we decided to take care of businesses and their processing needs, we knew we had to be different. The SMILEY FACE sends a certain message: We are glad to see you, hear you, work with you and to be of service. We CARE about you and we will do everything we can to put a smile on your face. Credit card processing is one of the products we provide but Taking Care of People and delivering a SMILE WORTHY experience is who we are and WHY we do what we do.

Labor Day

1. What is Labor Day?

Labor Day is a United States federal holiday observed on the first Monday in September that celebrates the contributions of America’s workforce.
 

2. Who started it?

There is still some doubt as to who is actually the first person to propose the holiday for workers.
 

3. America’s 1st Labor Day

The first Labor Day celebration in the United States can be traced to New York City’s Union Square on Sept. 5, 1882. It was designed as a way to appease city workers after numerous strikes and in some cases even violence.
 

4. Oregon was the first state to make it a holiday in 1887

By the time it became a federal holiday in 1894, thirty states officially celebrated Labor Day.
 

5. A rejection of Communism

President Eisenhower designated May 1 as both Law Day and Loyalty Day. Each of these was specifically aimed at replacing the communist holiday with a religious or patriotic one. In many countries, May Day is also Labor Day.
 

6. No white clothes the day after the holiday

In the early 20th century, white was the uniform of choice for Americans well-to-do enough to decamp from their city digs to warmer climates for months at a time: light summer clothing provided a pleasing contrast to drabber urban life. If you look at any photograph of any city in America in the 1930s, you’ll see people in dark clothes. By contrast, the white linen suits and Panama hats at snooty resorts were a look of leisure.
 

7. End of summer
Traditionally, Labor Day is celebrated by most Americans as the symbolic end of the summer.
God Bless you and God bless our wonderful country.
