She told her she was on the phone and would be out in a minute, so Mari rejoined the group out in the concourse to wait. While the rest of us waited outside, our union rep Mari poked her head in to let her know we were here to speak with her. When we arrived outside, the regional HR director saw us and retreated back into the attached kitchen. Following the vote, we sent a delegation up to the location that corporate has been using as a "base of operations" during the strike- a closed dining room directly adjacent to Chelsea's Kitchen. If you want to know just how terrified, let me just share how our delivery of notice went. The union has lawyers waiting in the wings just salivating at the chance to nail them to the wall if they do, and right now the company is terrified of us. Now they get to see us walk back in, heads held high, jazzed from 10 days partying it up on the picket line, and face no repercussions for it. They saw how much money we cost the company. Now that we accomplished what we originally set out to do, it's time to go back in, and lay those fears to rest. We made great strides, and throughout the strike, we kept hearing the same thing from our coworkers inside- "I want to join you, but I'm afraid to lose my job". meaning that they are now also contractually obligated to meet their payroll requirements for all union employees. And we showed it a final time when, after they had expended the resources to shift staff and purchase equipment in preparation for what they believed was a strike that would last through the holiday season, we informed them that we would be returning the next day. We showed it again when we blew past their initial categorization of the strike as a one-week action and stretched it out to 10 days. We showed them we were the ones in control when we went on strike. On that count, the strike was a resounding success. We began with one objective in mind- to force corporate to finally start taking their workers seriously. Throughout this strike, our biggest gains have come when we took actions that the company did not see coming. Following this, and after much deliberation, the union voted to return to work the morning of December 2. They will be in person, which is something that hasn't happened since the pandemic started. So, in good news, the company sent us proposed dates for resuming negotiations. Hi guys, sorry for the delay in the update.
