Workers at an Amazon warehouse in North Carolina have rejected a proposal to unionize. They are the latest group of the company’s employees to side against union representation.
I know a call centre that contracts its people out had to leave my area because it underestimated how connected people here are and quickly ran out of willing slaves. The building is a parking lot now.
It’s also why Bucc-ee’s pays like $25/hour for retail work. The working conditions are so grueling that the only way to retain workers (and avoid running out of available workers in the area) is to pay them decently.
Wife got hired there. Once I heard about conditions, I told her to fuck them off. If nothing else, she would eventually get fired over being late as there’s no way to drive that far and 100% be on time.

This is a real threat.

I’ll never spend a dime there again.
