    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.

    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…

    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.
