Support the Wirecutter union walkout


From the Wirecutter union:


> During two years of bargaining, The New York Times company has slow-walked contract negotiations with unfair labor practices and insignificant wage offers that severely underpay our staff. We, members of the Wirecutter Union, are fed up. To win the fair contract we deserve, we’re prepared to walk out during the Black Friday shopping week.


> Wirecutter continues to bring in record revenue for the Times, which is sitting on over $1 billion in cash. Yet our members have seen next to no financial benefit from their vital contributions to this success. Times management has offered paltry guaranteed wage increases of only 0.5%, despite soaring inflation and cash flows.


So basically, screw Wirecutter and all their Black Friday deals, and screw them in general until they settle on a contract with the union. It's been nearly three years and they still haven't agreed to a contract.
