Sadly, the union president will keep his job - it’s a one percenter job - while the rank and file workers from the factory and the delivery people will lose theirs.
I have yet to read anywhere exactly what the contract offer was. Anyone have a link????????/
I think the offer was an 8% cut, with compensation being restored to the current level over about a three-year period.
Since 2004, I’ve lost 5% once and 100% three times.
Color me “unsympathetic”.
They can outsource to China,since there’s nothing non-chemical in a twinkie!
Trial lawyers lose. There goes the Twinkie defense.
Where are these job losses? The HQ is in north Texas, but the actual layoffs are probably elsewhere, and I can’t find anything about that in any of these stories.
Not with Twinkies, LOL, them and cockroaches are indestructible, except Twinkies have a vulnerability to unions.
Democrats told us if we voted for Mitt Romney there would be massive layoffs. They were right!
They’ll end up at the Vermont Country Store:

Had enough Twinkies??
"They are not willing to take draconian wage and benefit cuts on top of the significant concessions they made in 2004 and give up their pension so that the Wall Street vulture capitalists in control of this company can walk away with millions of dollars."
Yes, so you, Mr. Hurt, would rather have people making $0.00/hour then the amount Hostess would pay? Nice Thinking, MORON!!
Good one!
