Starbucks & unions: care for a contract with your coffee?
from Anti-Social · host Tony Winton & Thom Mozloom
Starbucks is in the news -- not for it's new latte flavors, but for dozens of alleged labor law violations as baristas try to form unions across the country. We talk to two employees in Miami, one of whom says he was illegally fired in retaliation for trying to unionize the Hialeah store. We also discuss the national trends where there's been an large increase in the number of union elections -- but the overall rate of unionization remains low. In Segment 2, we talk about Key Biscayne's new Vision Plan, which was sent to the Village Council in October and was set for approval this week -- but was not. And Thom had a very cool thing happen on his social media feed. Send us Fan MailSupport the showSubscribe to the Key Biscayne Independent today
