looms to break the cogs, fearing the automated machines would render the
human workers obsolete.
(2) That it derives from the French sabot (a wooden shoe or clog) via its
derivative saboter (to knock with the foot, or work carelessly).
(3) That it derives from the late 19th-century French slang use of the word
sabot to describe an unskilled worker, so called due to their wooden clogs or
