Ep 231 - No Diet COLA!
Added 2024-10-29 15:13:52 +0000 UTCWe start this week with a quick check-in on rideshare drivers in NYC, hotel workers in Boston, and nurses in North Carolina and Michigan. For our first major story, letter carriers across the country in the NALC are organizing a national vote no campaign in response to a concessionary contract. We continue coverage of workers under attack for speaking out against the genocide in Palestine, from universities across the country, to the ACLU, to Microsoft. A recent report from Bloomberg described shocking working conditions at EV-maker Rivian's Illinois factory. Finally, Boeing workers rejected the company's latest offer and continue their fight for fair wages and a just retirement.

Also! I’m a steward, our grievance process is actually very complicated but like I have gotten like 100,000s of dollars paid out to my carriers thru it and I have kept carriers jobs and gotten managers removed thru it. The NALC files like TONS of grievances. My branch just passed 4000 for this year. The post office wants to degrade our rights there because we win like 90% and it costs them like a hundreds of millions of dollars
