@expstation got caught union busting

👀 @expstation is still fundraising off of a @blackstonebikes that has been closed for a year. they hired union busting lawyers, a branding consultant, crisis management or firm, graphic design firm, capital planning consultant -- but refused to pay fair wages to shop staff.

CALL FOR DRIVERS!! Market Box has delivered *over 8,000* bags of free local produce & protein to neighbors from Roosevelt to 95th. Come help us keep going this Sunday (or next)! A 2hr afternoon route gets groceries to 10-12 households! Sign up to drive at bit.ly/drivemarketbox

Did you know all Chicago employers must give workers paid sick leave? @ChicagoDCASE is unfortunately contracting @expstation for positions that break labor laws. chicago.gov/laborstandards

We support @portilloshotdog Food Service workers on strike in Addison! There is no excuse for one of the largest and most successful Chicago chain eateries to mistreat the people who make their business possible. Full alt text of the flyer threaded below 👇

Dill Pickle Co-op workers walked off the job Friday morning after months of battling with management over issues like hazard pay and the firing of employees. buff.ly/2TtrrrG

We stand with striking @SEIU73 Cook County healthcare workers in demanding @ToniPreckwinkle settle their contract.

Progress! We're finally in discussions with the @expstation Board and are hopeful they will do the right thing towards recognizing our union!

@LCNUnion For Christmas instead of bonuses we got gift boxes with crackers and spread and jam that multiple staff took as a sign they were being let go (and some of them were shortly thereafter!).

We know this all too well at LCN 😅. Understaffed and undertrained, but everything is okay because you can have a little #SelfCare by joining our zoom yoga session. How has your #nonprofit organization "invested" in you, the staff? #UnionStrong #FunnyFriday
