BNSF, the Warren Buffet owned company whose refusal to budge on sick days is a key cause of railroad worker unrest, earned 6 billion dollars in profit throughout 2021. That same year they had 35,000 employees . They could have given each of them a $150,000 bonus and still had 725 million dollars left over.
Nice that Brandon still has their back!
Why do they demand so little? :meow-tableflip: ask 100k a year and sick week off, then negotiate down
Probably because they know that if they ask for "too much" the lying media will have a field day with "greedy rail workers"
Does the media make train go choo-choo? Dock workers got shit on constantly, they still have most labor power and salaries for decades
