re: Starbucks, you love to see it. we've been making a lot of gains in Portland, OR the past few years. got some labor harmony legislation passed at the county level that we've been trying to get rolled out to the state. it died in committee unfortunately. we can finally eat at Burgerville again as of last year (boycotting them for years).

i'm on the board of a local that's primarily nonprofit behavioral health agencies and leveraging management's "we're the good guys" image against them is 🤌 (we had several orgs voluntarily recognized which was very nice)

kingcobweb posted:also there’s always one lol our company does this thing where they announce bonuses for non-represented workers and then we gotta scramble to bargain so represented folks can get ours in a timely manner. so the anti-union workers are just going hog wild with "THE UNION KEEPS HOLDING OUR BONUSES HOSTAGE" and wooie it's frustrating explaining why bargaining is a good thing 🥲 anyways, it's mostly like 6 folks out of 500 so i count my blessings

Geight posted:Yeah the 1 no vote was expected and recently even they have been like "man this is hosed", they're just more scared of losing their job than anything else so all we have to do is show them that the union is serious about preventing that from happening. Mostly I'm happy that we got 100% turnout! i always tell people it's better to be a member and vote "no" than be a non-member jamoke

Uncle Boogeyman posted:What happened there? I saw the documentary about it back in the day but it seems like more stuff went down since with lusty lady, i think it just became an issue with the building owner and rent prices blah blah blah. in portland news, we continue to unionize nonprofit behavioral health agencies. got another major organization last week 👏

JAY ZERO SUM GAME posted:helped unionize another workplace. the jewish museum in nyc just ratified their contract. decent raises all around, with bigger lifts for the lowest earners. the idea of the jewish museum in new york not being unionized until now is tragically funny my pals have been working on the art institute of chicago campaign for years and yeah museums can be total poo poo shows

I'm organizing the professional unit at my hospital which includes many different positions with 4 year degrees: social workers, occupational therapists, chaplains, etc. the CNAs are in the support unit along with custodial and kitchen staff i believe. then there's a tech unit and i don't even know who's in there
