Someone tell me all of the companies that have hired hitmen to kill union leaders

I work at a grocery store and we recently held our vote to form a Union. It passed with over 90%.

Now we're in the process in drafting the contract and I'd like to source ideas from this lovely reddit.
Wage increases and benefits are obvious, but how big should those be for grocery store workers and what else should we get in the contract?

And what kind of things should we put in expecting to give up in negotiations?

I'm looking for answers that stem from experience or a historical understanding of general strikes and what's required to put them together (successfully). What considerations need to be made? How do we mitigate financial limitations, especially in a country like America where benefits and access to healthcare are directly intertwined with employers?

I saw these organizations mentioned in passing and will do more research on them: DSA, SRA, and IWW. But for now, from the small bits of information I've been able to glean, it appears some key elements include:

- A tangible list of demands (so we're not just yelling into the void)

- a solid mutual aid network

- A strike duration that lasts more than one day

What else?

hello, I've posted in this sub like 100 times recently, needless to say, my job is constantly breaking codes and disregarding our health and well-being. I have a master's degree in law, and from one class on labor law, I can clock just about 80 things they do to us that go against some legislation. Anyway, 2 weeks ago I had COVID and was out for 2 days, they forced me to use all 22 hours of my accrued PTO. Then, last week, they weren't giving us time + half for Juneteenth so I was "sick" and went to the beach lol. they want me to use the remaining 1.5 hours for that day before I put in any LWOP, but I don't want to use it. I remember learning in school that a company can't force you to use PTO, but that sounds like something that changes by state. I work in NYC, and I'm a contract worker if that makes a difference. in short, fuck this place, I'm moving out of the country in august and it could not come any sooner

wage theft is by far the most common form of theft it far surpass all other forms of theft.

Wage theft—employers’ failure to pay workers money they are legally entitled to—affects far more people than more well-known and feared forms of theft such as bank robberies, convenience store robberies, street and highway robberies, and gas station robberies. Employers steal billions of dollars from their employees each year by working them off the clock, by failing to pay the minimum wage, or by cheating them of overtime pay they have a right to receive. Survey research shows that well over two-thirds of low-wage workers have been the victims of wage theft.

I have had wages stolen from my self in the past and was wondering if other people have experienced the same thing.

Strike is planned next month if the company doesn't agree to certain demands ,( the workers haven't had a pay increase in 8 years)

I just got hired on and I'm still on my 90 days probation, I don't want to cross a picket line if they go on strike, but I don't want to get fired either, does anyone know what to do?

So, I recently put in my 2 weeks notice at work, as of last Monday. On Tuesday, I was told I did not technically submit a 2 weeks notice as it was not 14 days. I told him I submitted 2 working weeks, as I have never heard of the 14 day thing. He wanted me to stay until December 27 and I told him “no,” and it was simply because I started my new job this day. He told me I had to stay until that day, but I still continued to tell him no. 14 days would have put my last day at December 26 by his logic anyway. So, over the last week, he continued to be passive aggressive towards me, talking about me behind my back, and just being straight up rude. I walked out today. Obviously he denied what he did and tried to defend his actions. I was tired of being treated poorly in my last 2 weeks. Did I do the right thing?

Currently work at a dealer and I was wondering if any mechanics/technicians are in a union and if so how are the benefits
