I'm still waiting on backpay from the university job I worked more than a year ago! Please share to spread the word so @nyuniversity pays its employees fairly.

Grist Union update! We've covered a lot of ground over the past few months — AND we're grateful that we were starting from a place of mutual trust and respect. As we make our way toward a final contract, we wanted to share some of the reasons why we're proud to be #Gristers 🧵

The needle often knows before we do. But this was management’s choice. We’ll see you at 1 p.m. for our picket and rally with @NYGuild, @NewsGuild and CWAUnion!
ALT A graphic showing a needle measurement ranging from “very likely walkout” to “very likely contract” is pointing to “very likely walkout" at 100 percent. The title says “Chance of a finished @nytimes contract by Dec. 8” and includes a @NYTimesGuild logo.

You are all Queen Bees in our hearts, but we are sick of management’s games. Stand with us on the digital picket line!

If @NYTimesGuild members don't have a deal soon, we’re asking readers to not engage in any @nytimes platforms tomorrow and stand with us on the digital picket line! Read local news. Listen to public radio. Pull out a cookbook. Break your Wordle streak.

Good morning, @nytimes. We solved today's crossword for you.
ALT A crossword format shows NYTIMES intersecting with UNION and WALKS. The clues say "Company whose workers are asking for a fair contract" Answer: NYTIMES; "Journalists, designers, security guards, news assistants and more make this" Answer: UNION; and "What the union does if the NYTimes doesn't settle the contract by December 8" Answer: WALKS. The New York Times Guild logo is on the image.

A company on track for an annual operating profit of $320 million or more should be paying its employees a minimum of $65,000 a year. The @nytimes thinks this is unreasonable. The @NYTimesGuild does not.
The Nation Union retweeted
After 20 months of negotiations, enough is enough: Today, more than 1,000 @NYTimesGuild members pledged to walk out if @nytimes does not agree to a complete and fair contract by Dec. 8.

CUNY IS WALKING OUT!
On Thursday, Hunter College and the GC will stage walk-outs for abortion rights. This is part of @GradAction's National #StudentStrike in protest of Dobbs and anti-trans laws.
We want safe, free, legal abortion. But we also have CUNY-specific demands. 1/

We're thrilled to announce a new set of standards for freelancers @thenation, including guaranteed timely payment, pay minimums, and access to the @paythewriter grievance process. Organizing freelancers can be challenging, but we're getting it done. ✊ thenation.com/article/cultur…

Today, @nytimesguild is releasing a report on persistent racial disparities in performance evaluations at @nytimes.
For nearly 2 years, management has chosen to downplay the problem instead of addressing it.

While @NBCNews claims to prioritize flexibility in its RTO plan, it has quietly been terminating contracts for remote employees because hybrid work no longer fits the business model.
They want us in the office and are pushing coworkers out the door on the way toward that goal.

You won your vote to start a union. Now comes the hard part. A year after workers vote to unionize, more than half still don’t have a contract. How do we change that? Our Strikes Correspondent, @rsgexp explains 3 ways workers can win contracts faster.
