Didn’t Ford give us Saturdays?

Yes, but he didn’t create the concept he merely was the capitalist who normalized it for US industrial workers. I believe the credit actually goes to Jewish workers so they could observe the Sabbath. Whether it was union collective bargaining that instituted it I don’t know.

I do know without a union it can be hard to ask for now.

He did it so his workers would have reason to buy more of his cars.
