My first management job involved supervising a small group of specialists at a telco. They did very different work from most of the team and took pride in that work.
They were however also part of the union.
There was a potential strike coming up, and I called a meeting to talk about how we could find ways to avoid disrupting our clients during the strike.
One of the old guys had to politely pull me aside and very apologetically tell me that disrupting the business was the whole point of going on strike.

how many sick days are we talking about here? how far apart are they?
they currently have 0ā¦ the plan on the table biden is pushing gives them 0. they apparently DO have pto, but it canāt be used last minute, and a lot of their vacation needs to be a full year ahead.
bernie says heās a no unless they do a roll call vote on 7 days.
This is slavery. There should be no debate. A job without weekends, sick days, accrued vacation time, and the like is flatly illegal.

Interesting things happen when you are able to present a credible threat to wreck the economy.
This just seems unfathomable. Was the current deal negotiated in the 1800s?
railroads basically exist outside of ānormalā us law

True, but what good is it if itās not usable to get a damn paid day off if you wake up with 103 fever or something (Iām assuming the idea is that right now they just get docked a dayās pay if they call out)?
Iād assume that scenario would be C, but your average flu/COVID/stomach bug/etc.that keeps you out for a few days is probably met with a ālol fuck you itās your fault for getting sick anyway just take a bunch of Advil and shut up and come in if you want to get paidā or whatever.
