I literally thought the headline said "onions."

Imagine my disappointment.

While I don't agree with her sentiment, I can absolutely believe some human union employees would say this. I don't know if this applies to Amazon jobs, but in the union I know (caregivers) one problem is workers with very few hours have to pay the same monthly dues. Still not really a valid point for most people, but for those few that get caught in it, definitely bittersweet and they will grumble.

Reminder that the Christian Labour Action Coalition is not a union even if they say they are.

Imagine paying for a bot that tells people you don't pay your employees enough to get by.

Why doesn't she tell them to work as chimney sweepers?
