There were employers who were monitoring their workers cellphones, punishing anyone on a union supportive app. This is the reason why, because it gives labor power to juke them when they try to go around the strike. We can communicate fast and act.
From the article:
“Bargaining with the Big Three in public, all at the same time, also turns the tables on the companies. UAW members aren’t competing in a race to the bottom — instead, the companies must compete to sign a good deal first and prevent more disruption to their operations. And everyone knows who the holdouts are.”
Striking against the big three at the same time is new as well as using social media to highlight the union’s requirements.
Some of these dunderheads that make the signs… 🙄🙄🙄🙄
They missed a perfectly good opportunity to make a sign saying “No More Tiers”, and they could have No More Tears by Ozzy Ozbourne playing in the background, whole or clipped.
Have fun with it, make it catchy, marketable, and memorable.
That strategy is interesting.
