I mean… for a strike to ever have a chance of working, you better have a lot of crucial people leaving and causing a financial disruption big enough to worry the company.

20 janitors and a local 87 union ain’t gonna do that.

Even the Hormel employees from Austin Minnesota couldn’t get their strike to be affective in the 80s and they had massive support.

Hormel still won in the end because the union leaders were disorganized and had no strategy

Deportation most likely would be "justice", but unfortunately not my call.  


This reminds me of how they went after President Trump, twist and distort the truth, and continually come from all angles with the pettiest of bullshit hoping something takes hold and upsets the masses. Plus the whole, death by a thousand cuts.

I have a feeling they are going to destroy this guy in an exemplary way.

SEIU is extremely left leaning.  Kind of the base of socialism in the USA.  Big surprise that everything offends them.  Not feeling sorry for them at all on this one.  

He could easily hire some non-political janitors who just want to have a non-skilled job that pays pretty well.  Or they could learn some actual skills and get better jobs.... Nah.  That is crazy talk!

Were any of them actual employees of Twitter?
Seems like they worked for a cleaning contractor and Twitter just cut back on the number of people they wanted.
Then when the remaining cleaning people refused to work Twitter cancelled the contract.
Doesn’t sound to me like Twitter fired anybody, they just did what lots of companies are doing this time of the year, belt tightening.

By the way the article said Twitter was “violating local cleaning regulations” what exactly does that mean?
The city or state regulates office cleaning?

Probably something along the lines of codes enforcement fining people for not keeping the grass cut, but with a left coast overbearing government boost.

My first thought on that, is what have they done about inspecting the homeless camps to make sure they are clean.  Seems like those camps would be a bigger public health danger, than an office building.

So a contract cleaner’s employ’s thought it would be a good idea to protest in front of a customer’s office, am I hearing that right?

They deserve to be unemployed.  Wait until they find out that the Union Thugs embezzled most of the Strike Fund money.

The battle he's fighting can be fought from anywhere, though... the rot is pervasive.  He may consider having home base already lodged within one of the beast's hearts to be an advantage instead of a liability.  And he could be right; every oppressive gesture against him can now be twitted before the masses by the guy making more headlines than Trump and FJB combined.

And the best part is that he seems to be having the time of his life doing it.  That tells me, more than anything else, that he's legit.

A nearly worthless union that only exists to protect nearly worthless people.  You're in fucking California picketing over cleaning Elon's toilets.  He can send a self-driving Tesla to the closest home depot and replace you all in a hot minute.

There has to be more to the story.  I bet they didn't fire 20 people, he just refused to pay for 20 people that weren't actually there working.

Yeah sure, like they can actually say they "lost their jobs" when they work for an outside contractor.  Their employer most likely can have them all lined up to work for other clients in a jiffy but instead they're lined up outside of headquarters trying to raise their ESG score.  Stupid fucks.

That's the part of the poorly written story that makes zero sense.

If they are a subcontractor- the union would negotiate with their company, not Twitter, an outside company that has no contract with the union.

Sounds like secondary picketing which is highly illegal

Obama and Biden closes Coal mines because global warming and the narrative is the miners that no longer have a job should learn to code.

Musk cancels the Janitor contract for a contract cleaning company because they strike Musks place of business and don't work, even though he is not their employer, and the narrative is Musk is mean it is only 3 weeks before Christmas.

It is all so tiring.

I don’t understand, Twitter is non-union, they contracted out janitors that worked for a union, fired workers they didn’t need, then the rest of them went on strike?

Why would you not terminate the contract? It’s not like Twitter is beholden to the union of contractors? Is this a California thing?

They need to understand that the contract was ended and they had no right to picket
