Fucking no strike clause, what the FUCK

Liberals are fucking moronic scum, we have no freedom, we have no rights, we are granted no provisions for our betterment or even protection or basic decision making

I will destroy this evil land, I will spill the blood of oppressors and free my fellow workers from their chains

I AM RISEN lenin-shining

      Well they’re fucking us over right now and we can’t do anything about it because of this clause, we have no recourse but to wait and the contract can technically go years without being renegotiated or reaffirmed

          The one two punch of “rule 1 which is good and fair” and “rule 2 which combined with rule 1 destroys the fairness”

          Then they can point to rule one and say look how fair we are! While obfuscating rule 2

          “Homeless people don’t want to work!”

          to get a job you need to have recent employment history, a car, a house, and stable life

          “Fucking lazy homeless”

          I hate this world we’ve been made to live in

        There’s probably other concerted activity you can engage in beyond the grievance process. Organized sick outs, harassment of managers, slow downs, etc. Hell even if the strike would technically be illegal they can’t force you to work.

      It’s usually traded for no-lockout, closed shop and dues checkoff. If they don’t get those,then it’s an open shop where reps are spending all their time collecting dues and the employer can lay everyone off without just cause.

      Sometime they negotiate contracts without it for the sake of a first contract, but it’s rare, and tends to reduce membership rates.

      There’s a cool middle ground UE does sometimes where they get language about striking over grievances or safety issues.

      IBT has another cool workaround where they can respect other unions’ picket lines.
