Alendra ‘Len’ Harris says she feels validated by the judge’s ruling, which she says also backs up the hundreds of similar allegations from other Starbucks workers around the country who have unionized in an effort to get better pay and working conditions.

i mean, that’s messy. think of the cleaners…
No no, I vote we banish them to some kind of thunderdome 2.0… 2 walk in.
Two men enter, no man leaves?
don’t, uh, tell them that part.
Keelhaul?
I volunteer to clean up for free. I’ll even drive up there out of pocket.
Republicans are blocking the bill that would allow the NLRB to issue fines for ULPs.
And of course they are…
Not to mention, re-hiring is kinda bullshit. Who’s going to want to feel comfortable working at an employer that fucked them over once already?

The e person in the article is extra evil for getting their job back!
What about punitive payments to cover mental health, legal and financial costs related to the firing?
Why couldn’t Starbucks just ignore the just ignore the judge like they ignored the law?
Video says they may appeal, which is the next best thing
Then they send in Judge Dredd because he is the law
This is the type of person I admire.
Hope she sticks it to them and the rest of her colleagues come to her defence.
Yeah, she’s a cool cookie
By coincidence, I’m wearing a tshirt supporting Starbucks unionization from last night. It’s the rainbow one.
shit coffee suffocating small coffee shops doing infinitely better work
Sounds like a case where they’ll shut down the entire location and move across the street.
CBS actually said ‘backpay’ without the space. I’m sorry I didn’t notice when the last high-school graduate was let go.
They probably let AI write it and the AI did it for stylistic choice to impress robocop
