I asked Tony The Tiger what he thought about the new employees,he said, "THEY"RE GREEEEEAAAAAAT"
Look for the union a-holes: Sens. Sherrod Brown (D-Ohio), Robert Casey Jr. (D-Pa.), Cory Booker (D-N.J.), Robert Menendez (D-N.J.) and Jeff Merkley (D-Ore.)
Why don’t the Senators hire them, as profit isn’t supposed to be an issue?
Ask Hostess how well the union worked out for them.
Isn’t that the same union that ended job-lock for the Hostess Cupcake workers?
If they’ve been able to lock them out for five months then they doubtless have an offshore facility or a plant in another state making the same product. So, they don’t need it anymore. I’d say close it. Then, in a year, open it and hire new staff.
Yes it is,you can only make Strawberry Dounuts and Frosted Flakes if you pay union dues.
Not a one of those senators actually from that state involved. A bunch of leftie teat sucking pols trying to make union thugs happy.
Since this is an ongoing dispute I would merely suggest that Kellogg ignore the outsiders and continue on with what is best for both the workers and the company.... and the consumer as well
That's right, they USED to make Twinkies, until the union killed the company.
The union's new motto: "Why be punished with a job?"
They make big bucks. Free insurance. No copays. The changes the company wants is only for new hires. The union says no, so they locked them out.
Oh please. These Union members make almost $30 dollars and are not working because they don’t want Kellog’s to hire non-union members for less.
How good does these Unions have it to protest over non-union pay!
Having been raised in a union family, been in a union and worked at a union facility as a non-union engineer, I’m 100% against unions. I saw union thugery at work all three times. The IBEW sent a couple of heavies to convince my dad to drop out of a union election. He met the with his hand on a gun and ran them off. He lost. He said they did the changed who did the counting. The Retail Clerks ran the chain I worked at out of business, so we all lost our jobs. As an engineer, I had union guys pull tricks on me so they could accuse me of breaking rules. The accusation netted them an extra $250 each in penalties and I got written up. Unions are evil.
“casual part-time employees who would make significantly lower wages and substandard benefits.”
Isn’t that the effect of 0bamacare; which all of these senators voted for?
Zucaritas!
Little sugar things.
That is what they call Frosted Flakes in Mexico.
Well,I work for a non union compamy,get 7 weeks paid vacation,full benifits,profit sharing,Full Health care,went up because of obamacare,unions can bite me!
Sherrod Brown (D-Ohio), Robert Casey Jr. (D-Pa.), Cory Booker (D-N.J.), Robert Menendez (D-N.J.) and Jeff Merkley (D-Ore.)All Demwits, all from other states. Another breakfast food flashback to Upchuck Schumer, who attacked cold cereal makers because in NY state the product cost over $4 a box. Not a peep out of the *ssh*l* about NY state sales taxes. How about gasoline? NY state excise tax is something Upchuck should have (and still should be) concerned about. Oh, but wait -- taxes benefit him and his. Demagogic Party / Partisan Media Shills ping.
Sherrod Brown is a putz.
I'm certainly no Chuckie Schumer fan, but technically the NYS sales tax does not apply to most food, including dry cereals. However, there are certainly other NYS economic policies which tend to drive food prices up.
After a LOT of searching finally found out what this plant produces.:
Apple Jacks, Frosted Flakes, Corn Flakes and Fruit Loops.
American journalism-——a low-fact product.
The DIMocRATs who wrote that letter voted for nobamacare which is part of the problem. What complete asshats. They all are an embarrassment to the human race.
