The union busting firms are scared

As a fine dining cook, I found work in a union workplace around a year ago.

My 40 hours a week are guaranteed except for Jan/feb/mar when there’s not enough customers, I get paid almost twice what I did at any other restaurant, if I work overtime, (more than 8 hours in one day, or more than 40 in a week), I actually get overtime pay, (and it’s 1.5x my normal rate!).

I get holiday pay, and in addition I get to either bank or pay out my holidays if I work those days, (either a paid day off when I want it, in addition to the holiday pay, or I get paid an add’l 8 hours at 1.5x that week). I also get two floating holidays, 4 paid random sick days, 2 paid family sick days, and 4 paid “doctor’s note” sick days, (paid out by our health insurance), as well as general allowance to take as many unpaid sick days as I want without worrying for my job security. (I’ve been told that taking multiple months off is where we start to be concerned about abuse, so if I want to do that, I can go through our leave of absence procedures instead, where I’m allowed three 2-week periods a year generally for whatever reason I want, (If my manager wants to disagree, he has to get the union president’s approval), and after that it’s up to my manager to decide if he’ll accept them).

I get two weeks of paid vacation time a year, and an add’l week per year for every 5 years I work there.

We get our legally mandated breaks, which, I know that sounds like a low bar, but taking anything other than a smoke break in a kitchen?!?! Unheard of! I get two 15′s and a lunch every shift! I get to sitdown and rest my legs and not get flak for it!

I get a bonus at the end of the year, there’s official procedures for if my manager isn’t happy with me or wants to get rid of me, (three meetings, during which my union representative has to be present), (and getting rid of my classification doesn’t work, there’s rules for how someone ‘bumps’ other people if classifications are gotten rid of), and severance pay for when full-time employees that are downsized out of the company, there’s a pension plan, like …
Guys, I have a 40-page handbook which details all of the rights my union has won me, and believe me, I’ve never had any of these at any prior workplace.

And you know what my union dues are? $4 a paycheck.

Of course I’m going to pay my union dues for all of those benefits.

Reblogging for this incredibly thorough explanation of what it’s like to actually have a contract in place at a union workplace. I reblog a fair number of posts about how people should organize, but if you’re like me, you might not know exactly what that can get you until you’ve actually gone through the process. Every contract is different because you bargain for what makes sense for your particular workplace, and every few years you re-negotiate with the employer to improve things in the next contract, but some things (like the right to have union representation when you talk to your boss about leave or discipline) are universal.

It’s worth every penny of your dues, I promise.

Star Trek is so funny. All of starfleet is so aggressively Neutral Good. Every time they’re up against something they Always do the noble thing. Every one of these motherfuckers is so ready to jump on the grenade. It’s so cute I love them

Starfleet officers come out of the academy with 2 things: a passion for science bordering on sexual and an incomprehensible desire for self-sacrifice

I love how this is like, acknowledged in lore, too. Like, the reason Starfleet is so full of these bozos is because it’s a big non-profit where you get to Do Science and Be Noble. So only people who want to Do Science and Be Noble join up. The organization has a reputation for producing the most moralistic greater-good-loving yuppies in the galaxy. It’s a straight-up hero factory. You love to see it

I bet vulcan ships gossip about how starfleet officers can’t go a day without volunteering for a life-threatening mission before they start climbing the walls looking for enrichment

Meeting of the Minds in the Outer Banks.

to everyone in the notes like ‘wow, I didn’t know sea turtles were that big!’: they’re not (this is not a leatherback), this is photoshopped. The horse image is a stock photo, to which the sea turtle (wildly out of scale) and the man with the camera were added.

Please note however that there are many beach turtles that can attain enormous size relative to horses, as seen in this completely unedited and unaltered real photograph that I took this morning:

mojo dojo casa house

Howdy folks! Sorry for the delay, I was, uhhhh covering the Tour de France. Anyway, I’m back in Chicago which means this blog has returned to the Chicago suburbs. I’m sure you’ve all seen Barbie at this point so this 2019 not-so-dream house will come as a pleasant (?) surprise.

image

Yeah. So this $2.4 million, 7 bed, 8.5+ bath house is over 15,000 square feet and let me be frank: that square footage is not allocated in any kind of efficient or rational manner. It’s just kind of there, like a suburban Ramada Inn banquet hall. You think that by reading this you are prepared for this, but no, you are not.

image

Scale (especially the human one) is unfathomable to the people who built this house. They must have some kind of rare spatial reasoning problem where they perceive themselves to be the size of at least a sedan, maybe a small aircraft. Also as you can see they only know of the existence of a single color.

image

Ok, but if you were eating a single bowl of cereal alone where would you sit? Personally I am a head of the table type person but I understand that others might be more discreet.

image

It is undeniable that they put the “great” in great room. You could race bicycles in here. Do roller derby. If you gave this space to three anarchists you would have a functioning bookshop and small press in about a week.

image

The island bit is so funny. It’s literally so far away it’s hard to get them in the same image. It is the most functionally useless space ever. You need to walk half a mile to get from the island to the sink or stove.

image

Of course, every McMansion has a room just for television (if not more than one room) and yet this house fails even to execute that in a way that matters. Honestly impressive.

image

The rug placement here is physical comedy. Like, they know they messed up.

image

Bling had a weird second incarnation in the 2010s HomeGoods scene. Few talk about this.

image

Honestly I think they should have scrapped all of this and built a bowling alley or maybe a hockey rink. Basketball court. A space this grand is wasted on sports of the table variety.

You would also think that seeing the rear exterior of this house would help to rationalize how it’s planned but:

image

Not really.

Anyways, thanks for coming along for another edition of McMansion Hell. I’ll be back to regular posting schedule now that the summer is over so keep your eyes peeled for more of the greatest houses to ever exist. Be sure to check the Patreon for today’s bonus posts.

Also P.S. - I’m the architecture critic for The Nation now, so check that out, too!

If you like this post and want more like it, support McMansion Hell on Patreon for as little as $1/month for access to great bonus content including a discord server, extra posts, and livestreams.

Not into recurring payments? Try the tip jar, because media work is especially recession-vulnerable.

i like the term “gallows humor” because it always makes me think of someone getting sentenced to death and being like “i have GOT to be the funniest person at my public execution”

An edited screenshot that says "Your impending execution should be your 2nd priority. Your 1st priority should ALWAYS be your commitment to the bit."ALT

Captions shouldn’t be censored. If the video says fuck or cum or cunt the captions should say the fucking word.

Unless it’s a slur! No one needs to see that.

If they say a slur in the video, the captions should reflect it. The disabled are not little babies who have to have life sanitized for them.

okay but I feel like ur forgetting that slurs don’t just apply to the disabled… children don’t need to be seeing the n-word or other racial slurs??

but children DO need to be hearing it? are you actually reading the post here?

Here’s how it works when subtitles are done properly:

Audio: Let’s BEEP go!
Subtitle: Let’s (censor tone) go!

Audio: Let’s fucking go!
Subtitle: Let’s fucking go!

Removing swears and slurs from the subtitles without removing it from the audio is implying that deaf/HoH people need babying, unlike their hearing friends and family sitting right next to them. Which is frustrating.

The point of subtitles is to give the same experience to everyone watching, regardless of ability—not to be a more palatable version of what’s being said.

The purpose of subtitles/captions is to be accurate, that’s all.

this reminds me of the moral outrage around slurs in books. pretending slurs don’t exist doesn’t erase them
