Never forget: If a company doesn't want you to have it, it's probably a good for you.
Most companies don't want you to drink cyanide, but it isn't good for you. Most companies don't want you getting hurt on the job. Most companies don't want you drinking or doing drugs while using heavy equipment. All these things arent good for you.
I'm not saying to unionize or not, but the logic is fallacious.
These posters make me want to organize.
It tells me that they think paying for graphics, ads etc are just a fraction of what I can gain.
Many states ban vote solicitation and signs within 50-200 ft of polling locations. I'm sure it's only for state+ level votes, but it seems to me like having signs saying to vote NO directly on and adjacent to the voting machine for a legally protected union vote should be not legal...
My union got me more money in a single year than I will pay in dues for my entire career in at least 3 separate years in the 6 years I've been working for my employer.
I get leave each year that is slightly more than 20 percent of my work hours.
Unions are amazing for workers.
It's amazing how anti union the US is. Unionise everything unless you want to be bent over and fucked by the long dick of capitalism.
The fact they are putting these up should let you know it's something you want to join
I did a seasonal stint at a Target Warehouse recently, and while there wasn't anything blatantly antiunion, the effort is absolutely there. There is alot of talk about open door policies, open communication lines between management and workers, and a culture of "trust". My emphasis, their words. They also have a standing policy that, out of context, is very odd. Knowing what I do about antiunion measures, it's very blatant. They have a fiercely reinforced policy that there is to be no distribution of any papers or solicitation of any kind during work hours or on Target property. They attempt to rationale it with an example of people "asking for kids fundraising orders or public funding websites". Personally I've never known those to be even a mild distraction at any workplace.
Never forget when Amazon called the guy who organized a strike "inarticulate" even though his speaking talent was literal poetry.
For those of you unaware, that was a dogwhistle. The strike leader was black.
They'd look better on fire.
This is always so funny to me. They have money to get these posters designed, have copy written up for them, get them printed, it looks like they paid for a whole website by the looks of the QR code.
That money could’ve been put in the workers pockets. Seeing these anti-union tactics is even more of a reason to unionize.
Unions protect lazy workers and friends and family.
Literally having several issues with my union and the CEO isn't helping me. What the fuck do I pay them for?
Shut it, pig
