Workers at the Oregon restaurant chain made history in April by becoming the first formally recognized fast food union in the country

...

They’ll make history again as they are replaced by machines.

Wow, common sense with tolerance and respect for other people’s views?
What a novel idea and in Oregon of all places.

To the virtue signaling lib employees... Wear your uniforms, do your jobs and keep your yaps shut about politics. Works every time it’s tried.

Too bad they went Union. The only way to undo this co-ownership trap may be to find enough reason to fire, lay off, or suspend all the present staff. The kids working there show zero loyalty to their employer. There must not be any Shift Manager or Lead Staff at all.

4 months after allowing their employees to unionize, the union embarrasses them on the national stage. This is not good for business, idiots. liberalism is truly a mental disorder.

I’m surprised they did go union. They are an independent burger company in Oregon that doesn’t seem to toe the line...but, I guess their workforce does.

What happens if some workers don’t want to wear the buttons?

It’s not very hard to hire 10 more people who can be taught to flip burgers.

Hope the union doesn’t cause them grief over this. There are unwritten dress code rules at my place of employment and if I had a dollar for every, “It’s not in the handbook”, I’d be rich.

Burgerville Workers Union? LMAO

Now if GoodBurger had had a union, Ed would have been properly compensated for his special sauce.

Want to see the protesting workers heads explode? Go in and order an “ICE T” and see them crap in their pants as they won’t know whether you are referring to the drink, ICE the agency, or the actor.

Better yet, coming in singing “ICE, BABY, ICE” and watch them scatter like roaches in a spotlight.

A smart manager will ask the customer, “Would you like free fries with that”?
