Our goal is to be the one stop shop for leftism here at lemmy.world! We welcome anyone with beliefs ranging from SocDemocracy to Anarchism to post, discuss, and interact with our community. We are a democratic community, and as such, welcome metaposts that seek to amend the rules through consensus. Post articles, videos, questions, analysis and more. As long as it's leftist, it's welcome here!

teamsters don't fuck around, this strike could be extremely interesting to watch if AB wants to find out

[–] Ensign_Crab@lemmy.world 9 points 2 years ago

Oh neat. I can't wait to see AB manage to alienate everyone involved again.

Good. AB-InBev is an absolutely horrible company.

Imagine all those die-hard Anheuser-Busch fans running out of their preferred variety of beverage and having to drink a tall glass of tap water. The intense flavor might be a shock but at least they'll have a similar alcohol content. Pace yourselves, folks.

Stop threatening. Just strike.

I'm not especially a fan of the article title either, I feel like it would be better worded as "99% of Teamsters authorize strike at AB ahead of contract expiration"

eh. i'm not opposed to there being an order of operations.

If you get your way by saying, "do this or we strike," there's no need to strike. And no loss of pay. Seems like a good idea to at least try.

The only union that always gets their way.
