As a highly compensated industrial mechanic (millwright) with a degree in business and labor relations I appreciate the role unions have played in helping me achieve a very rewarding lifestyle and economic security.
I still always think of this whenever I read “Zagato”.
I feel exactly the same way. I currently work in a place where joining the union is optional and the union just won a law suit against my employer. You better believe the non union members are in front of the line waiting to collect their portions of the money, even though they didn't put anything towards the funds it…
Ask those workers what they think about all that “flexibility” and how it affects them.
I’m sure it’s good for the boss - but what’s good for the boss is often terrible for the worker.
If you had any idea how badly tech giants treat their workers maybe you’d rethink your statement about this not being the 1930s.
Tell that to the workers at Uber.
“Flexibility” as a rule means bosses trying to screw over their workers - as a rule that’s only good for the boss, not the workers.
Yes, because workers having rights on the job is such a bad thing
Umm... yes, it is the employees choice. The UAW isn’t sitting there waiting to just unionize the place. If the employees chose to be unionized, at any given time they may hold an election and as long as a certain percentage of employees take part, whatever the results of the election is... becomes controlling (>50% of…
Tesla’s flagship Fremont factory is the only non-unionized American-owned assembly factory in the U.S., and the…
Exactly. She won thanks to uninformed Boomers. Their only responses are the ones they get from HRC emails. If I hear “downticket races” or “3 million votes” one more time I’m going to scream.
That guy is David Brock. And he convinced all HRC supporters to parrot the Bro narrative by paying Correct The Record SuperPAC employee-trolls to flood the internet with 1)The strawman concept of a ‘berniebro’ 2)Vote manipulation by sockpuppet accounts to promote these strawman posts, and 3)Agent Provocateurs to make…
I have found Bernie supporters to be more informed about policy than older Clinton supporters. In my experience Clinton supporters that I know anyway have a hard time explaining why exactly they support her, other than she’s more electable (which she is not according to almost every poll) and we need to stop Trump. I…
No, I mean the guy who convinced the world that Bernie Sanders supporters were a monolithic group who are unruly and selfish. They undermined his message perfectly. Every candidate ever has crazy, loud supporters that’ll call you names — not every candidate ends up with the reputation for that, and that’s not a…
“Democrats are civil, rational, and have manners”
I’m a Bernie supporter, but not a millennial. Also, go fuck your own face.
Yeah stupid fucking entitled millenials always asking for pie-in-the-sky bullshit like “not having to go into a lifetime of debt to get a job” and “being able to survive without having to work 70 hours a week.” They should get out there, get off iNstagram, and be born in the 60s like the rest of us.
To be fair, it’s probably hard to talk yourself into giving up when you’re still regularly winning states.
