What's disgusting? Union busting! Recently fired union janitors need your support!
When: Thursday, May 24th @ 4PM
Where: We will meet at the corner of St. James Ave. & Dartmouth and will head over together to 31 St. James to picket.
Facebook event: http://www.facebook.com/events/338105819590968/
Why: Come out and walk a picket with union janitors who have been recently fired due to a decision made by Capital Properties to change contractors. Changing contractors is a typical tactic used by bosses to fire union workers to be replaced by workers who will have to labor under deteriorated working conditions, less pay, and little to no benefits. We want to make it clear to Capital Properties (the owner/s of the Park Square building at 31 St. James Ave.) that union busting will not be tolerated in Boston.
Also, if you can, come out and support Harvard Library workers currently facing layoffs: http://www.facebook.com/events/242111025894172/
