This is under the terms of the National Labor Relations Act, which, you know, who knows?

But by the time this episode goes out, there is a small chance it won't exist anymore.

A bunch of provisions of it are under attack right now.

But, like, that is...

We have two unfair labor practices filed with the NLRB since the terms of negotiation have been in effect.

And they are not, in fact, progressive bargaining charges, but issues of status quo where they're trying to change the way that they do scheduling, change the way that they do like abstinence discipline, which are topics that are covered in bargaining and should only be changed once.

in bargaining while bargaining is active, but they're trying to change them and then say that these have been the policies all along.

And so...

god literally gaslighting yeah like actual actual straight up you could pick up the gas the cycle the psychology textbook point to it like oh yeah just pick up that whole lamp and we have their their words in writing of every step of the way where you can see the language change and be like no you are the person who said before that it was this other thing that was you

So we filed unfair labor practice about those things.

And you can, in fact, not track them anymore because since the government shut down, you can find a little PDF that explains that all ULPs are going to be pending indefinitely.

And that is all you can find.

Yeah.

And it's also fun because Trump illegally fired one of the Democratic people on it.

So you don't have a quorum on the board of the National Labor Relations Board.

They don't have a quorum anymore, which is a shit show.

And making any NLRB like attempt to get anything done to the NLRB really annoying.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Yeah, we got a very, very angry email the next day illustrating what the consequences would be if we tried to do a similar action again in that manner.
