Fwiw there has been some history of B&H workers being treated fairly not-well. I encourage reading past the first few paragraphs of this article as it's not all "union stuff"--there are lawsuits, DOL complaints, and…
A britishism I've never come across—does anybody know what "sandwiches with paste" are?
Not a lawyer but I think this would be constitutional in the same way that international sanctions are constitutional. The regulation of interstate and foreign commerce is an enumerated power given to congress and…
Yeah I 100% buy this. Just commenting on the fact that this tends to get conflated as a regular experience in warehouses, which ime it isn't.
Yeah--compare an alternate phrasing here, like "I watch and give a lot of presentations at work."
> Warehouse workers are going to have to form a union and threaten to really shut down amazon's profits, in order to defeat these profit-motivated outrages. It's always been like this. People have to self-emancipate. I…
Constant revolutionising of production, uninterrupted disturbance of all social conditions, everlasting uncertainty and agitation distinguish the bourgeois epoch from all earlier ones. All fixed, fast-frozen relations,…
Iirc only people who would be eligible for the presidency can be elected as VP, which would disqualify Obama. This is the same reason Bernie couldn't have chosen AOC as his running mate
Another thing I haven't seen mentioned here is that bosses will often try to slow down, stymie, or break up organizing drives by dragging out legal arguments at the labor board. This means arguing that the bargaining…
There _is_ a slightly looser coupling than an HR department, but the judges are still appointed and confirmed by politicians with pretty clear material interests. It's not so much a case of being "paid to rule the right…
The state de-funding of the university is great for corporations in a lot of ways. First, as you note, it's a way of getting you to pay for your own job training. It's also a clever way for tech companies to externalize…
The article mentions that Uber hope to replace public transit miles, and recognize it as profitable to do so. There's a link to a Times article that elaborates on this claim. It is true that Uber on occasion enter into…
I have to agree. The premise in the headline is so obviously agreeable, but the application described sounds like it would make for a terrible place to work. This isn't an article about building a supportive work…
Why?
I suppose it could end up as only a slight loss for Musk if the diver can't demonstrate damages? E.g. if Musk's claim was so absurd and non-credible that nobody took it seriously?
I use and like the 3310. It would be basically a perfect phone for me if MMS wasn't broken and I could disable the web browser. I'll take what I can get though since I don't have the self control to own a smartphone
I don't think this is just semantics—isn't this actually a cafe staffed by paralyzed people, who control robots? This headline is bit like saying a warehouse is staffed by forklifts, controlled by operators.
I don't think that's a very honest description of the allegations against NDT! https://www.patheos.com/blogs/nosacredcows/2018/11/two-more-...
I remember reading easily a decade ago, when people were describing Amazon as a charity propped up by investors, that this was Amazon's long-term strategy--aggressively reinvest all profits, burn through cash making a…
Marx and others who elaborated on his work developed the notion of alienation under capital—the notion that capitalism really screws up the specific sort of pleasure you describe. The idea, if I'm not messing it up too…
Is that the basis on which drug companies currently pursue and fund development of drugs?
Student athletes' biggest protection from retaliation is probably their incredible power over the institution and high level of visibility, as demonstrated by the actions of the Mizzou players during…
Under US law, the only way to gain recognition as the bargaining representative of a unit of employees—and the only way an employer is legally allowed to recognize you as the sole bargaining agent—is by demonstrating…
In the weeks leading up to the election, they were putting Trump's odds at 1/4, and pretty roundly mocking/cautioning against others who were putting him at 1%. On mobile, so I can't check by hovering, but I don't think…
Note that if you live near a university there's a decent chance they have a public-facing clinic as part of their psychology school that charges on a sliding scale
