Comment on UAW workers explain why they’re ready to strike

This is sickening. 3% raises every 2 years. Ridiculous. But it’s so much worse. It reads like a horror story.

An industry veteran, 23 days working in a row, still struggling to pay grocery bills.

98% expected uptime on the factory floor, in some cases without climate control where the interior of the facility is at 120 degrees.

It’s just pathetic that this is how workers are treated in this century. We made such massive improvements in the 20th century. And now we’re just slipping right back. Literally allowing children to take on overly dangerous jobs and treating every worker like disposable trash.

The people making bank on the backs of these workers should be ashamed.
