Does anyone here have any more detailed information on the looming strike? I have heard for years that the rail companies really squeeze their workers, but I’m not familiar with it.
Just the most recent article to come through my feeds. It looks like the contested point is an attendance policy. https://www.npr.org/2022/09/14/1122918098/railroads-freight-rail-union-strike-train-workers
Huh. So it sounds like companies are trying to use abusive policies that worked in industries with little to no union representation. But now they are trying against workers who can fight back, things aren’t going so smoothly.
Yeah, bad move in general and horrible timing to boot.
