the man will decide when working conditions are unsafe. not the hourly shift workers. if we left it to them, they would never work.

[ousdahl]

yea!

if they don't feel safe working when the building is on fire, what next? They won't feel safe working during a tornado warning too?!

[ousdahl]

Home Depot workers in Philadelphia vote on whether to form 1st unionized store

https://www.npr.org/2022/11/02/11329146 ... union-vote

If the union prevails, it would mark a historic moment for the country's largest home improvement retailer. And it would add another name to this year's list of chains facing first-ever unions: Amazon, Starbucks, Chipotle, Trader Joe's, REI, Medieval Times and Apple stores.

Labor organizers typically face high hurdles, with companies able to stage mandatory meetings and other efforts to discourage unionization.

At Amazon, only one of five union elections has succeeded so far, and the company is still fighting the union's sole victory. At Trader Joe's, the union lost an election in New York after winning two, in Massachusetts and Minnesota.

At Starbucks, the pace of organizing has slowed, and almost a year since the union's first win, Starbucks has barely begun negotiating a contract with unionized workers. Employees at 251 stores have voted to unionize, while workers at 56 stores have rejected the union.

At Home Depot in Philadelphia, organizer Vincent Quiles has told reporters that his original union petition included more than 100 signatures in support. But he also has described a generational divide at the store with younger workers, who tend to be more enthusiastic about unionizing, and older workers, who tend to be less so.
...
Historically, labor groups have struggled to gain a foothold in retail, where 4.4% of workers are members of a union.

If you're disappointed that Biden, or any other democratic president you can name, doesn't acquiesce with 100% allegiance to labor's wishes, you might want to stop and consider the alternative, because that's what you're going to get.

Not that you can't dream.
