Just a preemptive reminder that May Day, Intl Workers' Day, is not in fact a day to "celebrate happy workers' day", being glad that workers exist and that you/some are forced to have jobs to survive,
just as March 8, Intl Women's Day, is not a day to "celebrate that women exist, because I like boobs" or similar (real) nonsense,
leave that bullshit for the U.S. Federal "Labor Day", imposed in actual reaction to the workers' day of heightened righteous rage and struggle on May 1.
If you then feel you lack a seasonal phrase of greeting for tomorrow, I suggest what I've been using for >decade:
Impactful May Day! :-)
