    I’m usually in support of unions, but some of the demands here are just backwards and stupid. Preventing automation is a big one.

      Ya let’s wait until our oppressors are ready before fighting back. We wouldn’t want to upset anybody

        It could have easily been worse closer to the pandemic when shipping was already fucked. So now is actually a good time!

      Damn, if only the employers hadn’t paid people so poorly - this was so easily preventable, the capitalist class just needed to not be a bunch of greedy bastards.

    It sure sounds like the trade association needs to bring a better offer to the union if the impact is going to be so severe.
