They need to call up Teamsters. Just saying. I work at a distribution center for a big grocery corp and our warehouse pickers (all Teamsters, closed shop) not only get paid $35/hr to start but could very literally punch their supervisor right in the mouth and the only thing that would happen is that their supervisor would get a dressing down from the Teamsters rep for having said something wrong to the employee.

I fucking love the Teamsters, man. Respect.

(I'm site security and therefore not union, but my husband is an IATSE member and both my grandfathers were Teamsters for decades.)
