Target workers at New York store reject union
2011-06-18
Workers at a Target Corp discount store in New York voted to reject union representation in what would have been the first unionized Target store in the country, while union officials vowed to press for another election.

Employees at the Valley Stream, New York, store voted against union affiliation, 137-85, Target said in a statement released Saturday. The vote was taken on Friday.

"We are looking forward to having another election," said Aly Waddy, director of special projects for the United Food and Commercial Workers Union Local 1500, which wanted to represent workers at the store, located about 15 miles east of Manhattan.
Keep voting until they vote your way with "encouragement"? Parasitic fucks.

#1  NY? why is Target even there. The hostility of NY to any business and union threats make NY a lost cause anyway. I would shut the place down period. Even with a reservation or two since they didn't go union. Offer relocation to employee's but cross the state line. I suggest they deal with a threat rather than living with one. Have you ever had to deal with a threat?. They are big harry things that will eat you out of hose and home. They have the absolute worst table manners.
