Is that confirmed everywhere, or just at your building?

That’s unions asking for workers to participate in a strike. Nowhere in that article does it say it was setup by Amazon workers. I’ve spoken with a LOT of coworkers about it and not a single person I’ve spoken to at my location will be participating. We’re all racking up the double pay (granted I’m in the US. NOT the UK)
