Synopsis by Hal Erickson
In another Disneyland compendium of classic theatrical cartoons, "everydog" Goofy demonstrates mankind's ongoing efforts to avoid work. It all begins when Work is invented--after caveman Goofy discovers that he has opposable thumbs. Throughout the rest of history, and especially during the Industrial Revolution, the Goof's various forebears alternate between working for a living and taking well-deserved (but pitifully short) vacations. But leisure time is not always quality time, as proven in a lengthy sequence wherein office slave Goofy takes a "dream" vacation to Hawaii--and nearly ends up being thrown into a volcano.
