Amazon Sells UnionismDid everyone see the New York Times expose (August 15) of the horrors of working for Amazon? To quote just a taste: "In interviews, 40-year-old men were convinced Amazon would replace them with 30-year-olds who could put in more hours, and 30-year-olds were sure that the company preferred to hire 20-somethings who would outwork them. After Max Shipley, a father of two young children, left this spring, he wondered if Amazon would 'bring in college kids who have fewer commitments, who are single, who have more time to focus on work.' Mr. Shipley is 25." And that's just how they treat their white-collar, professional workers. If it couldn't happen here, Hennepin County clerical workers, that's because we have a union. Please support it.
