Quote HistoryQuoted: So a union boss decided to get a bunch of union members out of work just as a political gesture for the democrat party. The democrats have destroyed many a union in this country with this nonsense that unions only exist to service the democrat party. This is probably one of the best recent examples of union employees being used as a political cannon fodder. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Or against Elon who seems to be on a streak? Poor choices all around Sucks for their kids though Soros probably paid their bosses to get them to strike against Musk during the Christmas season knowing full well what the consequences would be and they would use that against Musk... I'd be surprised if those were the actually janitors that lost their jobs instead of crisis actors street theater who got the real janitors fired. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Didn't it turn out that Obama did nothing to take away guns during his presidency - they got Obamacare passed, they surely could have gotten some gun stuff passed - why didn't they? Quote HistoryQuoted: Quoted: FAFO before Christmas? I guess they found out. https://www.ar15.com/media/mediaFiles/17524/69255.JPG He placated Sarah Brady by telling her that they were working on something, then two things happened - the dems lost control of Congress in the mid-terms. - Fast & Furious (likely connected to the 'something' Obama had told Brady they were working on) became something more than a movie title. Obama ended up with failing grades from the gun control crowd and the environmental crowd, because he focused on Obamacare when dems had enough seats in Congress to pass their agenda, then failed to deliver on much of his promises to them. |

I’m not anti union at all. That said, striking right before Christmas is a good way to get fired right before Christmas. Maybe wait till January next time?

Quote HistoryQuoted: Their contract was up on 12/09 I read there was already a new non-union company contracted, they may have already started. Twitter is going to get sued due to bullshit San Francisco union law regarding how union contracts can be terminated. San Francisco city officials have already started investigating that sleeping quarters were set up for the Twitter staff. "If overnight stays and sleeping quarters are/is occurring that would be against city code." From what I can tell, California is an at-will employment state: https://legalbeagle.com/13720496-is-california-an-at-will-employment-state.html "California is an at-will employment state, a fact provided for in California Labor Code Section 2922, which states that employment with no specified term may be terminated at the will of either party on notice to the other. Employment for a specified term means employment for longer than one month. The fact that California is an at-will employment state does not mean that a party can be terminated for any reason. A party cannot be fired for an illegal reason, such as religious discrimination." That doesn't mean they won't try to sue, but how did that work out for the Hostess bakers a few years ago?? |

Musk needs to make the union the bad guy here.
Offer to hire back any of them outside the union. Offer them $2 an hour more then they were making unionized, and tell them they will have even more money left over by not paying union dues. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Didn't it turn out that Obama did nothing to take away guns during his presidency - they got Obamacare passed, they surely could have gotten some gun stuff passed - why didn't they? Because he spent all his effort on gun control. And lost the House in 2010. Harry Reid didn't want to prioritize gun control because of the impact it had in the 94 election. And the big push was "healthcare" anyway. Obama didn't get the comprehensive immigration "reform", either. |

Why did they picket in front of Twitter instead of the cleaning company they work for?
Their beef wasn't with twitter, but instead with the company that employs them. All Musk did was cancel the contract with a company he'd hired. The way the story was written it sounded like Musk fired people that actually worked for him. Our so-called media in this country should be ashamed of themselves. |

When you cut your work force as deeply as Twitter just did it makes sense to reduce janitorial staff. How many janitors per floor did they have in that building?

Quote HistoryQuoted: unions don't work on non skilled labor. ask the guys who stack apples at vons how that worked for them? It works for someone...the union management. My nephew got a job bagging groceries and collecting carts at 16.5yo at the grocery store across the street. Got his first check and saw the union dues. Said fuck that and walked over to Subway to get a job. You have to wonder how the unions conned a bunch of non-skilled laborers into giving them money for basically nothing in return, but then you just have to remember they're working a non-skilled labor job specifically because they aren't the brightest bulb on the strand. |

Lol, nice examples showing my ignorance! Oh, you didn’t post any because you’re like the brainwashed liberal college kid who tries to take on some like Ben Shapiro with nothing but feelings based talking points given to them by their favorite talking heads. Have you….YOU been to factories in India and China where kids work for 15 hours a day and basically get paid food (barely) for the day? Have you been to these factories when a worker gets hurt? They get whisked right off to the hospital and given the best treatment! Oh….wait. The opposite happens. And guess what, smart guy, the same thing happened here in America not 100 years ago. So yeah, you’re ignorant. You don’t have a clue. Not a fucking clue. You turned on the tv, your brain switched to a highly suggestive state, and you got fed bullshit. Yeah, of course unions can and have become corrupt. No shit. You win the Pulitzer! But guess what? They all aren’t bad and they are the reason you don’t work 16 hours a day for 10 cents an hour. |
