@TechNews it was only tentatively agreed upon, contingent on union votes.

Several unions voted "no" so the possibility of a strike is not over.

@priyachandwriter what's worse is that the management and support, all sitting in cleaned daily and climate-controlled offices, get sick days and personal days. They're not even subject to exposure to the harsh climate and the engine cabs are not sterilized and cleaned on a daily basis like their offices are. The toilets on engines are dirty and dispense into blue chemical more similar to what you'd see at a porta-potty.

The workers who are the bread and butter for a company are the ones who the company can least afford to let have time off, and are usually the workers subject to the worst attendance policies set by the management.

@tree Hopefully the undesirables stay in their echo chambers of Parler and TS.

@notsurprised Hi! Welcome to the Fediverse. We don't have an algorithm that helps filter political posts like the bird site, so it helps to clarify which politics you're talking about. If you're from the USA, use #uspol for better attention towards your intended audience.

@garyackerman not to mention oddities in doubling the recipe up, 2 cups make a pint, 2 pints make a quart, but it takes *4* quarts to make the gallon... 🙄

@sisu33 Not that I'm aware of... One of the #FBPEU listers is here. However, I'm finding it useful to create Lists that populate by hashtags to find like-minded #Resister friends to follow.

@babyfangs @gossithedog no on the pay site part of it, that was a rumor when they started, but the donation portion was optional (technically opt-out because the checkbox was pre-marked in, as is with most things that 🍊 touched)

@TeaPain glad to see you here, Tea.

@freemo is that why Mastodon took you off the master list?

@gossithedog yes, whoever is behind the DeWalt power tools spamming was quite successful breaching the AI spam detection. I've marked all that breached through as spam, so hopefully they pick up the pattern soon.

@OhNoSheTwitnt The Venn Diagram of those is a single circle.
