Temporary Shortage of Birdcage Liner to Affect the Nation

More than 1,100 union employees at the New York Times Co began a one-day work stoppage on Thursday, the union said, citing the company’s “failure to bargain in good faith,” after setting a deadline for a contract last week.

The union, part of the NewsGuild of New York, had set a deadline for a contract for midnight Dec. 8.

The 24-hour walkout marked the first time New York Times employees have participated in a work stoppage since the early 1980s and comes amid a growing labor movement across the United States in which employees from companies such as Amazon, Starbucks Corp and Apple Inc have organized in an effort to push back against what they say are unfair labor practices.

  1. Leftist snowflakes have given the service industry a black eye. If they want union benefits and paygrade, then it’s time this country follows the European rule to eliminate tipping for service workers. You can’t have both a mandated significant pay/benefits package AND tipping which is used to dodge full income taxes by most in the service industry.

  3. A 24 hr stoppage?
    Huh.
    Show and Tell. Nothing serious. The Union maggots know that the Times has supported national and inter-national socialism since (at least) the 1930s.

    Anti-Hitler until the Molotov–Ribbentrop Pact – then supportive until June 22, 1941 – then Anti-Hitler again – all under orders from ComIntern.

    Chances are they had already manufactured the fake news and printed the newspapers for the day of the shut-down.

  4. That’s alright. I have a free local weekly scaled down version of the NYSlime that I use as a cage liner. So no loss to me.
