Brilliant to have a strike with a set duration so that A) management knows your serious B) management can accurately determibe the potential cost of the strike C) if the strike does occur, you’ll have higher participation rates and D) if the strike does occur, it won’t drain the union’s coffers as it has in the past with the American UAW.
Absolutely brilliant planning. IBEW ought to be taking notes!
I remember hearing the opposite, that strikes with a set duration were ineffective because management could just wait it out…
my counterpoint is that the union leaders can then look at the company like this:
That’s a lot. Sounds like good news. What’s the catch?
Samsungs stakeholders cannot capitalize on the whole 8-fold growth, as a part of that goes to the workers who actually produce the goods. If you really want a catch, thats the only one I can think of.
Oh no! Won’t anybody think of the shareholder?! /s
Fantastic outcome. Great to see people striking when their concerns are not answered and unions coordinating.
Is this “average” in the same way “On average Jeff Bezos and I are billionaires”? Are execs getting huge bonus and workers nothing, or actual workers getting a sizable payout?
Execs aren’t usually included in unions
Love it.
Kick management in the dick.
This is just from 10% of profit. Management barely noticed financially.
Always love people who piss on a victory. Have a great day.
I mean, some things just are. They’re not huge victories or tragic defeats.
10% is massive to investors
Uh I’ve got a Samsung microwave what do I get?
Unevenly thawed hot pockets
Whoever downvoted you must be fun at parties. Have a great day my funny friend.
