Oh, I thought that... Worker > Management ...went without saying. 🤷♂️ “He and dozens of other employees at the Bloomfield warehouse walked off the job to demand Amazon temporarily close and clean the facility after a worker tested positive for COVID-19 there last week.” What shitty management and shitty humans to force people work in an infected area or lose their jobs. Management should lick the handrails of the NY subway.
I don't take sides on this item. (And sorry that I seemed like that) I presented this as my expected outcome (reality vs idealism). There are other ways to enact change and protesting is not always better. Also, there was indication that he himself was under house quarantine, which was putting co-workers at risk.
Let's see how it works out for them.
