Ever talked to the cleaning staff how they're faring? Your suppliers in Cambodia (or wherever)?

It's not that hard for capital to see reason when it comes to specialised, educated, and sometimes right out irreplaceable workers, but that doesn't mean that capital suddenly developed a conscience.

We don't have cleaning staff. Try again.

You know perfectly well what I meant and the intent and purpose behind my comment. Try again.

And even if you're working in a five person co-op outfit and someone of you indeed does scrub the toilet: What about the dishwashers at that Chinese takeout you order at every other day. How does your actual supply chain look like, even if it's pizza and coffee.

What are you arguing about exactly? Not a single comment in this chain is anti union at all, and the comment you replied to even argued for unionization where it will have the greatest benefit, i.e. all the jobs you just mentioned.

Why are you acting like this is some sort of prisoner's dilemma where either everyone unionizes or no one does?

Nice buzzword answer, but nobody here is against your right to unionize
