Me either, I look at my friends at Sysco AR and I gotta shake my head, they put up with way to much over there.

uh, i thought that the miss. barn for US Foods was union as well? it shows up on the US Foods workers united page as union? either way, good luck, I wouldn't work at this place without a contract!

anyone know what happened? i punched it into google, and just came up with an NLRB amended decision, it looks like the company was trying to stall the election?

Thanks for the update KK.

The workers have spoken, mgmt will piss themselves in excitement and will probably make good for a few months, then it will go about as usual.

I wonder how much the intimidation factor played in? Thats a pretty big majority on the no side, a majority had to sign, I wish the best for them.
