Mother fuckers we need to follow in the Victoria BC store's footsteps and fucking unionize, en masse.
Call your $1 district and get in touch with a union rep to get more info. This is doable, it's been done. Fuck this company.

Defo. Talk to your coworkers, keep it on the DL, because management is reaaallly into union busting since last weeks unionization.
Figure what things you always talk to managment about and that never get resolved. Think about how were paid minimum wage- not a living wage. Think about how in the best case, you look up to a benevolent tyrant to run the store from the top down while taking your interests into account, and often, at worst, not getting any say in any decision making process. Think about how our managers got bonuses for keep their stores open as long as possible before shutting down for all of a month, then throwing us all back out to what? Sling five frappuccinos a minute to a bunch if bloodless psychos?
Maybe a Union isnt the right answer (it is) but neither is continuing like this.

Unfortunately can't do that in the state of Georgia. Georgia is a fire at will state.

I mean if y'all can get together on this I'm sure it'd have impact down here 🤞

Maybe. Its illegal to union bust up here but theyre doing everything in their power to do so anyways, mostly just shitty emotional manipulation of their uneducated teenage staff.
Yall are gonna have to fight for your rights whatever happens thats for sure. Im really lucky to live somewhere where that fight was already won for me many years ago, but theres still work to do, and tje small pieces of the welfare state that we ever had are always being questioned and hit by austerity measures.

I’m fucking tired of this place. I need to make money to pay for college. Why should I bust my ass off here for $9.50 when I can bust my ass off at target for $15? My manager treats us all like shit, my shifts are horrible. The only thing keeping me there is the “benefits”. We’re fucking understaffed and overworked and not appreciated...
