That's exactly what they did for the contract ratification and the strike vote, the only two votes they've ever communicated to us about.

They have four stores in a 120km radius across three different towns all going to one conference center, where voting is only open for a few hours during regular work times. Nobody is allowed to take time off work to go vote, not to mention that everyone is paid so poorly most don't have car and therefore no way to get there. There's a token short bus that goes between the towns, twice a day on weekdays only.

The only two votes they actually communicated about were clearly designed to reduce voter turnout.

UFCW is corrupt.

What's different about shaving with one as opposed to a regular disposable?

Oh you must be one of those lucky ~30% of the workforce who get to work in offices and actually have negotiating power in interviews.

What's your plan for raises for grocery workers who don't get luxury of wage negotiation no matter what?

What do you do if your unions has no elections?

UFCW is corrupt.

How do you know that you actually figured out the meaning though?

How many words did you guess wrong about and now you think you know but you don't actually. You'll never know if you read the context properly without looking it up after.

Try to guess the meaning of the word lugubrious from the following sentence:

Although he was wealthy, he often found himself lugubrious.

There isn't a single clue in that sentence as to the meaning of the word.

Don't just guess; actually learn properly instead.

The more money you have, the more breaks you get. That's true all the way down the scale.

Nor healthcare, and our education systems have been collapsing too.

Yeah maybe! That's still 750,000 so maybe I'll find someone after all.

Hopefully some of them live nearby.

Yeah but I don't find them attractive.
