From the artricle:
“I’m worth a living wage, I’m worth raises that keep up with inflation. I’m worth equal pay to my colleagues, regardless of my race or gender. I’m worth job protections that value my years of service,” multiple employees are seen saying in the video."
This is exactly the difference between the subjective and the objective views of reality. No doubt, in their own mind they are entitled to all they think they should have. However, in the outside world, their value is determined by the marketplace, which if no longer governed by The Iron Law of Wages, is certainly driven by the marginal utility of their services, which is apparently much less than they think it is. That's really their complaint.

"pleading for public support during the 24-hour stoppage"
Shouldn't they be pleading with William Burns?

I’m with you on that, except for the campfires part. We all must be careful not to do things that might cause Global Warming.
Al Gore himself told me that just the other day.

‘We’re Worth More’
"We're worth more."
Naw - this is what you're worth.
To: ChicagoConservative27
Many media outlets such as the Washington Post, LA Times, NBC among many others are owned, controlled and subsidized by liberal, leftist billionaire individuals and families. They use them to project their power, interests and politics. Most of these people have the primordial fear that one day they will be held accountable by the outraged people and that their commitment and support of the Left will protect and preserve them. They are as hopelessly wrong as were the pompous upper class Russian elites who supported the revolution. They were among the first to be liquidated.

“I’m worth a living wage, I’m worth raises that keep up with inflation. I’m worth equal pay to my colleagues, regardless of my race or gender. I’m worth job protections that value my years of service,” multiple employees are seen saying in the video. Sooooooo... how much are they paid? Betcha it's more than the average Amazon employee.

“industrial action”
I think that is a British term.

Strikers:
“I’m worth equal pay to my colleagues”
They are worth zero.
In fact I would not even pay them that much.
