The New York Times Risks Losing Election Needle in Tech Union’s Strike
https://www.thedailybeast.com/the-new-york-times-risks-losing-its-needle-over-its-tech-unions-strike/
Unions have highlighted how companies risked workers lives during the flood. Ikea trapped its workers inside their warehouses as the waters rose all around them. Uber Eats and Glovo forced couriers to make their usual delivery routes and face torrential downpours with only bicycles and scooters. And Mercadona, the largest supermarket chain in the Valencian country, coerced its delivery drivers to drive head-on into the rapids, where they had to be rescued by emergency responders.

New tentative agreement for mail carriers is a disgrace
I'm a mail carrier for the USPS. Today, after more than 600 days of negotiations and more than 500 days of being out of contract, our union president announced our tentative agreement. [It's a fucking disgrace.](https://www.nalc.org/news/nalc-updates/body/Summary-of-2023-Tentative-Agreement.pdf?fbclid=PAZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAAabg3eRkti_wgqVJecFjuxu5-a0Fy2CJ6CBPfmFK0JiXkNHWbglLO1r9TFI_aem_vEwSMOQsiZCwuodW7-s7FA)
To summarize:
* Our raises for 2023, 2024, and 2025 are 1.3% for each year
* The two-tier system that was put in place in 2013 by federal arbitration is being "eliminated" by...... everyone being moved to the shittier tier
* Our non-career workforce, a position called City Carrier Assistant who have worse pay, worse benefits, and fewer workplace protections, are being re-entrenched as a fundamental part of the service.
All this for a few hundred dollars in (prorated) COLAs.
There's going to be a movement for a No vote on the TA so that we can go to federal arbitration and get something better than this wet piece of toilet paper, please look out for ways to support mail carriers!
