But I still think we should cyberbully Sam into turning it into a worker cooperative.

Would love to read it if they still have it! There's not much written on it (or PFT labor history in general for that matter)

(Also thank you for talking about us with your fellow workers?)

Blue Oval battery plant workers organized in part over workplace hazards like exposure to dangerous solvents that may cause respiratory problems and birth defects. “If we don’t get the UAW in here, I don't know if I can stay,” one worker told @lfelizleon.bsky.social: labornotes.org/2024/11/kent...

3 years ago today, the Elmwood store in Buffalo, NY organized and won a union.

Since then, we've grown, fought, and won - together. As workers prepare for what we hope is the final phase of negotiations with the company, we're celebrating our strength and solidarity today! Here's to MANY more ✊

Two SBWU members celebrate in front of their Starbucks store

BREAKING! Workers at the Coleman Village store in Atlanta, GA just UNANIMOUSLY voted to unionize tonight, 14-0!

They're joining over 520 Starbucks stores that have organized, and soon they'll be able to add their voice at the bargaining table as we finish up the foundations of our union contracts!

Just thinking about how one of the most popular musicals of the late 1930s was written for the ILGWU, had a cast made up entirely of union members, and had a plot focused on antifascism, strikes, and labor rights.

LETS FUCKING GOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

If that's not at least the name of their LGBTQIA caucus they're doing it wrong.
