@AmericanAir Your email literally says "eligible for refund if rebooked to lower cabin." I paid for Business, got Economy on BOTH flights after mechanical delay. 3+ hrs of chaos, no vouchers, home after midnight for my birthday. Let's fix this.

We have just laid the groundwork for a just transition to EVs. GM capitulated. Ford and Stellantis now know it’s just a matter of time. The Stand Up Strike is working. #holdtheline #StandUpUAW

In a first-of-its-kind law, all California public high schools will now spend a week teaching students about the right to join or form a union, job protections for minors, how to defend against workplace abuses, and more. contracosta.news/2023/10/02/ort…

#organizing is the difference that turns jobs into good jobs. @uaw is fighting to do just that. #standupuaw “One way to think about the autoworkers’ strike is that it’s an attempt to make manufacturing good again.” nytimes.com/2023/09/22/opi…

When auto CEOs say they can't afford to pay their workers, remember that Ford, GM, and Stellantis (Chrysler) have made a combined $21 billion in profits in the first half of 2023 and $250 billion in profits over the decade.

The NLRB just charged Starbucks with 200 separate violations of federal labor law. This is a hell of a legacy for Howard Schultz. He will go down in history as the Al Capone of union busters.

We’re trying Subtack as an alternative - if folks like it and migrate - we’ll keep it up. If the lockdown is lifted and folks prefer google groups - we may go back. For now - we want to get the maximum reach for our employers while providing the most opportunities for talent.

Jobs That Are Left - aka #JTAL Update 🧵Many of you noticed that our popular listserv, "Jobs That Are left," was locked down by @Google a few weeks ago, preventing us from posting new jobs or people from joining.
