Kleine Erinnerung:

Das Chaos in den #USA über das sich Springer-Propaganda und deutsche Mittäter-Presse gerade künstlich mokiert, ist geplant und gewollt von Hintermännern, die verantwortlich sind für #Projekt25

Gestalten, mit denen ranghohe Persönlichkeiten der "christlichen Union" regelmäßig Kontakt suchen und pflegen. Die #Union angeführt von Nazi-Pascha #Merz

Selbiger #Stammtischkanzler der Herzen kriegt gerade ordentlich die Kimme geleckt von bürgerlichen Parteien, die für "Mitregieren" ihre Verachtung für die sozial Schwachen gerade in jede Talkshow tragen.

Aber klar.... irgendwelche Fanboys der deutschen "Sozialdemokratie" finden meine Posts zu hetzerisch.

Tod und Verachtung!

It’s expected that C-Suite types at “Big institution” will be changing our hybrid work schedule to comply w Administration “Return to Work” policies tomorrow.

I have to pay $6/ day for parking to come to work. 15 miles to & from work = $21 or roughly $27.50/ day. I spend $82.50/ week to come to the office. $220/month. $2640/ year! All out of my pocket.

If I’m going to be taxed to come to work I want my #Union fighting to put that back into my pocket & they will be alerted to any policy change.

Today in Labor History March 25, 1911: Triangle Shirtwaist Factory fire in New York City killed 146 people, mostly immigrant women and young girls who were working in sweatshop conditions. As tragic as this fire was for poor, working class women, over 100 workers died on the job each day in the U.S. in 1911. What was most significant was that this tragedy became a flash point for worker safety and public awareness of sweatshop conditions.

The Triangle workers had to work from 7:00 am until 8:00 pm, seven days a week. The work was almost non-stop. They got one break per day (30 minutes for lunch). For this they earned only $6.00 per week. In some cases, they had to provide their own needles and thread. Furthermore, the bosses locked the women inside the building to minimize time lost to bathroom breaks.

A year prior to the fire, 20,000 garment workers walked off the job at 500 clothing factories in New York to protest the deplorable working conditions. They demanded a 20% raise, 52-hour work week and overtime pay. Over 70 smaller companies conceded to the union’s demands within the first 48 hours of the strike. However, the bosses at Triangle formed an employers’ association with the owners of the other large factories. Soon after, strike leaders were arrested. Some were fined. Others were sent to labor camps. They also used armed thugs to beat up and intimidate strikers. By the end of the month, almost all of the smaller factories had conceded to the union. By February, 1910, the strike was finally settled.
