Teamsters and unionizing Amazon

[Delivery!!!]

Don't think we're allowed to post links here so you'll have to search yourself. Just read that the teamsters voted almost unanimously to allocate sources to a national campaign to look at unionizing Amazon.

Impossible
Most Teamsters don't know what voting is

Especially if they start down south in Alabama like they did last time, doesn't make sense. Start in the northeast. Can't get anywhere there you aren't going to have a shot the rest of the country.

It's already going on in SoCal.

Teamsters' national director for Amazon on its union fight

CNBC's "Squawk on the Street" team discusses labor tensions and the union push at an Amazon warehouse in Alabama with Randy K, Teamsters' national director for Amazon.

It's a gold mine waiting to happen for the Teamsters.

Lost cause. Amazon workers love being exploited for some reason?

Did not know that, hope it works out. @nWo is right, it needs to be done. But Amazon pumps so much money into campaigning against it, not going to be easy. At least Cali has a decent amount of union work force (17.6% according to 2020 BLS stats), Alabama was only at 8.7%. P!ss poor place to start the national fight.

Need the feds to start hitting them with anti-trust lawsuits.

consider that in 1954 35 % of workers were in a union...in 2020 10 % were... democratic california with 17 % in 2020 is not very good.....even in r.t.w. states most people dont join......if all states were r.t.w the union percentage would be around 5 %....

Sometimes you have to let that stew simmer for while.... before it's ready.

Technology is their advantage. And it is limitless.... It can be done but we have to learn from Alabama and Overnite transgressions.

I live in a RTW state and almost all FT and higher seniority PT are members of the Teamsters. I imagine most of the other Union jobs are the same.
