Starbucks and Amazon workers back on the job

Workers from Starbucks and Amazon are returning to work after strikes last week that lasted several days, as unions look to continue negotiations.

[@DY-Hak1]

Amazon knows who striked and they will be terminated after the holidays!

[@outlawblack123]

Lawsuit baiting is the main focus of the strike.

[@lukecwolf]

Traitor to the working class here

[@rosemaryfilanowicz]

@@lukecwolfthe average base pay for an Amazon worker is $22/hr please save the dramatics

[@Tregarz]

@@rosemaryfilanowiczIn new york... that's literally nothing.

[@MistahFen]

The union told those Amazon workers, “listen guys, we’re a business too and the strike pay is starting to look awfully thin” 😂 cmon now, strike didn’t even last for a week, did it?

[@DY-Hak1]

No point in striking if Amazon continues to ignore them. It's 1% of their workforce!

[@hyper_tex9834]

Unions are not businesses, unions are the workers, did you not know that?

[@jerrethausner5504]

Doesn’t look like y’all are getting any closer to that TikTok life.

[@czarinajudan6643]

I didn't see any strikes in my area

[@dtxgmoney]

LOL back on the job. Minor disruption for these businesses. Back to business as usual!

[@JosephSciegns]

Technology has surpassed the need for either. Shows you how corporate America’s not so superior.

[@primalplasma]

Back to business as usual. I guess they heard about the robots.

[@piranhalegify]

Where 10 years from now? If that tech existed thats where they would be already.

[@johnvanoverberg-kp6nq]

Always made own coffee got my Amazon delivery today on the deck behind the wood box as usual every time but we don't have fly night delivery people Government Postal Service Ups and FedEx both good to 👍

[@jonathanguzman1073]

Amazon workers don't even work today 😂

[@Theinspirationalrogue]

Don’t mistreat my packages

[@URRidikalus]

Bought a new keurig that chills my coffee for me. Will never go starbucks again.

[@rosemaryfilanowicz]

McDonald’s SF vanilla iced coffee is delicious

[@REDARROWHAILSTORM9000-of6ei]

I don't see the point of starbuck need a raise lol but amazon worker definitely do need a raise🤣

[@everpereza]

I can only imagine how many Karens didn't get their Christmas Starbucks. What a shame.

[@druu988]

Those Amazon workers aren’t actual employees they’re contract workers so they were striking for no reason and Amazon executives were laughing about it. I thought it was funny too.

[@James-qz2sd]

They still represent Amazon

[@juliethompson8685]

Starbucks at $18 an hour plus benefits which equals $30. I didn't make that as a 911 dispatcher....so, piss off.

[@lucasnedtargos]

It's absolutely ridiculous what they're demanding lol. Being a barista is a job for college students.

[@francismarion6400]

​@@lucasnedtargosmiddle school.

[@MH-vb4ug]

@@lucasnedtargosbut it’s a career which requires a PhD. Former experience working at Google campus coffee shop required. 😂😂

[@Outrunninaround.]

Can’t believe dispatchers are not union.

[@juliethompson8685]

@Outrunninaround. In Wisconsin, we were. Then Scott Walker came along.

[@Ronald-hk6fk]

Over $20 to pour a cup of coffee yet vegetable pickers get paid LESS😂😂😂😂😂

[@Tregarz]

why are you laughing? you just pointed out a clear wage gap.

[@abulletforrem]

If you hate your job, Just quit lol Worked for many of jobs I hate doing and seen so many strikes. I wasn’t part of it, I was on the floor working to make money. The strike really pushes us back making us do more overtime than usual due to being shorthanded. Seen so many people go on strike against the company and always fail. Thank god I left that type of work environment, it was just to make enough money to feed my family. Bills were of course late, but I kept pushing. Having a strike won’t do shit to big companies like Amazon and Starbucks lol

[@MH-vb4ug]

@@abulletforrem exactly. There is more than just Starbucks or Amazon as a place to work. Costco, Panda Express, etc. They pay well. For higher pay you can advance your way up the latter. Career is your own. My employer told me exactly that when employees complained on pay.

[@abulletforrem]

@MH-vb4ug I used to work for Costco. It was probably one of the better warehouse jobs I’ve worked at. Decent amount of overtime, better work and life balance and The pay was enough to get by and the benefits were great. I quit due to working for the trades and I will not look back.

[@gomerhanger2285]

How exciting 😊

[@adanmoreno6243]

Oh my goodness workers rights yeah I can relate still a job and thus job and bills and rent and car payment and insurance ain't gonna pay itself 😂😂😂

[@Gadgettime]

more strikes equals more layoffs.

[@cooreyfeldman2688]

Wierd how so many people are happy about this effort to improve the lives of baristas failed… wait until you work in a terrible job im sure that would change your pov

[@Stellar212]

Yeah, it's disturbing almost. These ppl are so miserable and bitter. It's like they want minimum wage workers to suffer.

[@LuisMendoza-y9k]

LMFAO!! Great Job teamsters. Nothing accomplished. Great Job. Keep paying your dues and begging for work from Amazon. ROFL!!

[@Jazzfestn]

NOBODY missed them!

[@MurseBrandon]

There is no reason why a Starbucks barista needs to be unionized. However, I do think that Amazon workers need to be unionized due to high risk of injury on the job.

[@DarkwingShadow]

It’s all fun and games when you want to go on strike and have that few minutes of fame. Then when them bills are due, back to work they go. That 2 weeks vacation is over lol

[@jsundberg5542]

I hope they all get fired!!! go and get a better job or really work for it. if they get a raise we should all get big raises

[@Stellar212]

I mean yeah, all wages should go up. ALL. So, this doesn't mean you get to be bitter about baristas getting a better wage. You do realize this is a problem for everyone?? Not just minimum wage workers. Wages are not catching up with the high prices we are faced with. People like you are miserable. Be mad at the greedy cooperations, not the workers. Gosh, what is wrong with you???

[@Tregarz]

@@Stellar212It's a bot, anyone who is against people getting fair wages clearly has no back bone

[@almerichendricks5425]

Amazon y'all lol

[@lothean2099]

Next time, starbucks will just close down next Christmas. Those will go with out pay. Then open up.

[@DGB-h9c]

Negotiations tactics. I hope all parties involved could come to a reasonable temporary agreement.
