Taking Acela up on Saturday to go to the commanders fan pep rally, going to the game Sunday, and bought a refundable ticket for the ride home in case I wanna stay an extra day. I also have a lot of Amtrak points so I will get a first class upgrade so it’s a meal and some drinks for the short ride.

@dcsportsbog @hauchu I'm leaving for Amtrak right now!

Anyone taking the train to Philly for the game on Sunday? My guy @hauchu wants to chat with you about your up and back plans. Let us know.

So unbelievably proud to walk out for 24 hours with my Washington Post colleagues — and stand in front of Ned the Newshound in this great poster — at midnight.
Respect our picket line, and demand the company negotiate a fair contract that benefits all of us.

Three hours until Washington Post workers start our 24-hour unfair labor practice strike at midnight Dec. 7. Don’t cross the picket line and don’t read @washingtonpost.

A letter to our dedicated readers:
On Dec. 7, we ask you to respect our walkout by not crossing the picket line: For 24 hours, please do not engage with any Post content. That includes our print + online news stories, podcasts, videos, games and recipes.

Workers @washingtonpost have been in contract negotiations with our bosses for 18 months.
But the company is refusing to pay us what we’re worth or bargain in good faith.
So on Dec. 7, we’re walking off the job for 24 hours.

But this was also one of the most devastating weeks of my time at The Post. Now, more than ever, read, subscribe or share our work. We’ll keep fighting to tell stories like Big Schlim’s and our neighbors that make the DMV, but we need others to stand with us.

On Tuesday, Washington Post interim CEO Patty Stonesifer announced the company’s intention to reduce the workforce by 240 people, about 10 percent of our staff, through voluntary buyouts.

This week was also the first birthday of The 7 DMV, a weekday newsletter where I highlight the best work from my colleagues covering local news, sports, things to do and beyond. Subscribe here: washingtonpost.com/newsletters/th…

If you’re looking for food around D.C. area, you’re going to want to listen to Big Schlim. I sat down for a meal with him. washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/2023/…

The @washingtonpost is a major sponsor of the National Book Festival, because it “celebrates the storyteller in everyone.” But over a year into bargaining, the company won't put a serious wage proposal on the table.

On the front page of today’s @washingtonpost
They grew up visiting Eden Center, the East Coast’s largest Vietnamese cultural hub.
Now, as adults, they’re trying to protect this aging Virginia strip mall from redevelopment.

Was fortunate to team up with the great @teoarmus to report on the future of Eden Center. Here’s a free link to read: wapo.st/3XpC4s1

We’ve been bargaining for a new contract for 9 months, but the company still hasn’t offered a serious proposal to improve wages and pay equity at The Washington Post
Tomorrow, hundreds of @postguild members are lunching out to demand The Post pay us what we’re worth
Here’s why:

The @PostGuild is fighting for fair pay at the bargaining table. The Post hasn’t budged from current levels — the lowest around $30,000. In the DC area, this is unlivable. At a place like The Post, it’s unconscionable.
Read our zine to see how we’re hoping to change that 🧵

Today, The Washington Post laid off 20 of our colleagues.
While 20 is much smaller than 200 — “a single digit percentage of the workforce,” as Publisher Fred Ryan indicated, that’s little consolation to those who lost their jobs today.
That number should be zero.

The Washington Post has started laying off my friends and colleagues. It's wrong and unnecessary and did not need to happen. I'm sad and mad and so disappointed in this institution that I care about so deeply. We're better than this.

Today, we came into WaPo’s so-called town hall with questions about recent layoffs and the future of the company.
Our publisher dropped a bombshell on us by announcing more layoffs and then walking out, refusing to answer any of our questions.
