    Big company ruled by judge to be illegally union-busting. Also rules that the only penalty is they have to put up some flyers. Classic.

      Successful because they’re a shit company. Being horrible gives you a capitalistic advantage.

    When we were gearing up for a contract they started finding things like jelly donuts and mystery shit in our products. No direct damage, but funny as fuck. We voted to strike with two days left of the contract and decided to send us all home and pay us for it.

    Instead of sinking all that money into rockets, Bezos could pay his workers more and not treat them like robots. He could let them unionize if they want. But Bezos is a typical billionaire with a giant yacht.
