Best workers in the world my BEEP. Go ride your bike.

Time to close that store 🤪

Is it too late to sell Apple stock?

We can’t unionize manufacturing workers, because they are all in China.

The only folks who make out are the Union bosses.

“...everybody kind of misunderstands about unions, they tend to be, especially in the trades, the best workers in the world.”

OK, Joe, I’d hardly call Apple Store workers as being ‘in the trades’. And I seriously doubt that by joining a union the Apple Store workers are suddenly going to get any better.

Apple has three stores in the Baltimore area. I wonder if they can get by with two?

“You know, workers have a right to determine under what conditions they’re gonna work or not,”

Ya they do, they can quit. I spent 6 years in the UAW, I can tell you they are not the best in the business. In fact it is detrimental to your career is you are.

[DoughtyOne]

Well, he fell on his head after all.

Apple should simply close the unit.

I know this is a tough position to hold on FR, but here goes…
I used to be anti-union, and had plenty of ammo to back that up with.
Not all unions are equal. I’m proud to be part of a union that has high standards and we do and have drummed people out that weren’t up to snuff. We all have the attitude that we don’t want to work with a turd, so they get forced out 1 way or another.
In my industry/job the people in the union versus non-union make more money (even with dues) and have better benefits than the non-unionized. We aren’t greedy, we are even below the nation-wide industry standards.
Unions are good when the hands understand what they have, and work to protect it.

UNION MAID by Woody Guthrie, 1940

Now, you gals who want to be free,
You gotta take a little tip from me
Get you a man who’s a union man and fight together for liberty
‘Cause married life ain’t hard if you got a union card
And a union man has a happy life if he’s got a union wife

Oh, you can’t scare me, I’m sticking to the union
I’m sticking to the union, I’m sticking to the union
Oh, you can’t scare me, I’m sticking to the union
I’m sticking to the union till the day I die

Note: Pete Seeger quote: “I’m proud to say I was present when ‘Union Maid’ was written in June, 1940, in the plain little office of the Oklahoma City Communist Party.”

Yeah, because it worked so well for this Starbucks

Union Pension Plans, the Original Pyramid Scheme!

Did Joe visit the slave labor in China to get a union in there for them? Now that would be leadership! Go Joe.

[Dogbert41]

"Hey everybody! We're in the Union now!!!"

[jdsteel]

Union Joe. Never met a union he didn’t like.

Kind of like Hunter & cheap hookers.

[ridesthemiles]

IN my younger years-—I was forced to belong to 5 different unions...including the UAW & Teamsters.

Had seriously rotten things done to the membership by the
staff’.

WILL NEVER BELONG TO ANOTHER UNION.

BIDEN WANTS EVERY SINGLE JOB IN THE USA TO BE UNION-—EVERY ONE.

[Clutch Martin]

Those workers just took a paycut and they don’t even know it.

[FlingWingFlyer]

Jo Jo is “PROUD” of them. Just in time for LGBTQD Month. How did he know they were all “gay”?

[Chgogal]

Banana Republic Biden is an ass.

[Zathras]

These are not Apple workers.
These are glorified sales people.
I bet they are going to join SEIU.
Originally “Janitors for Justice” who used the same justification in Silicon Valley.
