    I hope it all works for the best. Let's hope O'Brien don't shove it up their ass too.

        Amazon hasn't even recognized the union, any union. Seems like thats the the first challenge, so don't you think its a bit early to be talking about a contract, any contract?

          With the merger, Amazon workers will now be directly confronting a Teamsters apparatus that is helping enforce mass automation and layoffs, including at one of Amazon's main competitors, UPS.

              SOB loves to have a crowd around him wherever he goes.

                If you look carefully you will see the crowd around him are teamsters from all around new York. Another photo op.

                Of those who voted! 5,000 of them ( at least) didn’t even bother to participate. How about doing the math on the entire unit?

                Thats how it is in any vote or election. We are a witness to apathy.

                I'm glad ALU released the numbers, at least we know what we're up against. I'm also glad O'Brien was at JFK8 right after the count.

              Hopefully, especially for the exploited Amazon workers, OZ will fulfill its commitments over the long road ahead to get a contract and organize after the PR machine turns off the cameras and moves on to the next propaganda piece. This is no idle concern given OZ's blatant expulsion of the 22,000 members of the Graphic Communications Conference and its eviction from the IBT headquarters after almost 20 years of affiliation, paying per capita and dues in accordance with a much more comprehensive merger agreement.

                I think few people have any knowledge of the GCC being tossed out. The story is they weren't paying the percapita.

              Noman is confusing the issue with facts! That’s not how a PR campaign is supposed to work! Thank you for your truth!

                    Amazon is not a career. I don't expect anything to change but depletion of the International general fund. Amazon is on the road to full automation. SO should spend his energy stopping UPS layoffs. In my area, UPS just announced a huge layoff. Historic contract indeed
