First time in my life. It's been a week now, the employer is not talking to us, and the workplace is closed.

The solidarity is amazing. I've never felt closer to my coworkers. People are mad and it's beautiful.

AMA I guess, but I'll be vague on details tbh.

Oh my god pete you can't just ask people if they have a good strike fund.

Was there anything that prompted the push to strike? Or did you just try to certify as a union and get rebuffed?

We've been unionized for a while. The latest contract negotiations simply stalled and we voted down their final offer, which was a plate full of shit. A tale as old as time lol

Strikes are awesome. Keep it up, it gets harder but it's worth it because you are going to win.

[-] HexbearGPT@hexbear.net 10 points 8 months ago

Fuck yeah! I hope you win!
