Kellogg strike - where do you stand on this?

[GWH]

I actually understand the reasoning behind striking to keep out the tier wage system. It was a noble effort, they just lacked leverage.

[Camp]

I agree. The division it creates goes against the very idea of union.

Biden is controlling the NLRB and has made the rules for 50 years.

It is all on President Puppet and his say one thing…do another methodology.

Soon only public sector unions will exist which is completely backwards of the idea to protect labor from abuse.

@Camp

We know that is the plan.

Even if indirectly…the open border is to drive down wages.

Sad that Kellogg would invest in the BLM fraud instead of their own workers…many minority workers whose lives matter.

Was that the plan until 2019?

Yea, going to have mental images now. My wife LOVES their tea and the occasional fish sandwich.

Kellogg has the right to set their wages. Employees have the right to accept this, strike or walk away? If they strike, Kellogg has the right to replace them. Customers have the right to vote their opinions with their purchases. No one has the right to hire an illegal alien and should be severely prosecuted for doing so.

Kellog can set up shop across the border and use Mexico cheap labor too I supposed.

No need.

Central America has been delivered to their door by Biden and Majorkas.

A 3% raise in a 7% inflation year sucks, I suppose.

It’s a 3% raise on a 5 year contract. With cost of living adjustments between years 2-5. I’ve never had a contract that did it that way, so I don’t know how much a cost of living adjustment compares to say, a 2 or 3% raise every year.

Our union just settled on a 4 year extension of our current contract.

I feel for the union people whose corporation doesn’t understand their worth like mine does.

AT&T, CWA Reach Tentative Agreements to Extend the Midwest and Legacy T Wireline Contracts

AT&T has reached tentative agreements with the Communication Workers of America to extend the contracts for the Midwest and Legacy T.

“The four-year contract extensions cover about 8,000 employees collectively, across the United States and Puerto Rico. The agreements will be submitted to the union’s membership for a ratification vote in coming days.

Including these tentative extension agreements, the company has now reached 35 agreements with the unions since 2017.”

There is a reason I have worked for the company for 34 years and never struck.

Hold on a second. I worked for New Jersey Bell/Verizon from 1987 to 1996. I was IBEW, and we went on strike in the late 80s, CWA didn’t? I’m asking because I don’t remember.

Not too long ago Verizon went on strike again in 2015 or 2016, CWA wasn’t at all a part of it? Or do the member split depending on what company goes on strike?

Side note. For those that think a company saves money during a strike on employee salaries may be mistaken. At Verizon the management working get paid an absurd amount of money during a strike. No way they’re saving anything.

@GrandWazoo

The one thing the article didn’t mention is when does the strike fund run out? Many times this will determine if and when a agreement will be made. I find it interesting that those on strike can be replaced. It sounds like the company is protected from a break in supply. And if the working conditions are bad, I hope they negotiate that into a new contract.

Not every union has a strike fund. I went on strike for 9 weeks, no strike fund for IBEW.
