Notes
-
Lower-to-middle management was able to be organized as they were closer to workers than CEOs
-
Union proposed a media blackout
-
Going to media is a way to use leverage
-
Don't want to shoot your shot
-
-
Management was punitive, emotionally manipulated organizers
-
Management reaction is similar to other organizing efforts
-
Organizing should be joyous, otherwise organizers will burn themselves out
-
Organizing should be personal
-
Kickstarter organizers knew they were going to set a precedent
-
Managers and business owners are able to organize on company time, unlike workers, example of how the bourgeoisie uses worker power against itself
-
Managers etc. can leverage business resources as well as the state against workers
