Damn it, what am I supposed to do with this pitchfork now?
But seriously, shitty misleading headline.
If you watch the video, one of the union members is at the Council meeting speaking to the City Council and another union member walks up to him to inform him that they were laid off with immediate effect. The workers both seemed genuinely surprised that they were laid off.
Use it.
Don't be fooled by layers of bureaucracy.
As along as it lands in the soft belly of those in the owner class or their supporters, it has served it purpose.
Take your dumb reddit shit back to reddit.
Welcome to the internet.
The "pitchfork" joke dates back to Fark, my friend.
