    Impossible to say if this poster is from this month or from the 80s.

    Apart from the Saturn-shaped controller, which means post 90s.

    Yeah! Buy a gaming console instead of having support against us, the mighty abusive employers! Getting fair wages is just dumb when you can play video games.

    By the way, why so expensive? I pay 8 euros monthly, from my bruto income. While they made sure my previous employer didn’t fuck me over, for a staggering 5 years long fight. I had 5 lawyers. For 8 euros per month. And I won, which I couldn’t have done myself.

      Putting the ad hominem to the side if that is what you got out of that conversation I think it’s mostly a reading comprehension issue.

      I think you’re forgetting the etiquette of the fediverse.

      They ain’t being a nuisance here, so why the nagging?

    How much do your union busting consultants cost Delta?

    I bet it is a fuckload more than that.

      This is what literally popped into my head when I read the blatant anti-union propaganda.

    I swear to all the fucking gods, I’m contrarian enough that even if I were anti union, this shitty attempt at manipulation would make me jump on board.

    Like, fuck, don’t insult my fucking intelligence like that

        look man, I’ve tried those cheap Algerian knockoffs - most of the time, you’re lucky if you get 2 or 3 Marquees under the fucker before it starts warping, much less taking it onto the bourgeoise pigs and their fat necks.

        Don’t be fooled, you get what you pay for here.

    Its a shame no one puts a sticker that says Union dues are like an investment that will pay off in dividends way above 700

      Right? What kind of union isn’t benefiting their members to the tune of $700 a year? Especially one that’s charging those kinds of dues should well be able to.

    For whoever reported this as Anti-Union Propaganda, you are correct. However, this post has been approved because it’s blatantly awful as a piece of propaganda. Anyone who thinks that this post provides a convincing argument, please add your comment to the thread to promote discussion. :)

    Average annual salary is slightly less than $70k annually in the US. A union that gets you even a meager 3% raise annually is ~$2100 in increased income or 3x what your dues is.

    Bunch of fucking wankers.

    I feel like if I worked someplace that put up that sign I would go study to become a plumber. Infuriating.

      I worked for a summer at Staples. They actively discouraged unionization.

        If there ever was a sign that you probably need a union… This is it.

          They had a whole video that was anti-union which was “training” material.

            Home Depot did the same thing when I worked there ages ago. There were even questions afterwards to ensure our compliance understanding.

A place to discuss positive changes that can make work more equitable, and to vent about current practices. We are NOT against work; we just want the fruits of our labor to be recognized better.

Our Philosophies:

  • All workers must be paid a living wage for their labor.
  • Income inequality is the main cause of lower living standards.
  • Workers must join together and fight back for what is rightfully theirs.
  • We must not be divided and conquered. Workers gain the most when they focus on unifying issues.

Our Goals

  • Higher wages for underpaid workers.
  • Better worker representation, including but not limited to unions.
  • Better and fewer working hours.
  • Stimulating a massive wave of worker organizing in the United States and beyond.
  • Organizing and supporting political causes and campaigns that put workers first.
