@soapy: what drew you to labor law? im also interested in labor law. currently work for the teamsters

soapy

my major is in labor stuff! originally, i was interested cuz i did some work with a teachers union, and as i've taken classes on labor and employment law and unions and such, as well as some jobs working with unions and management and government bodies, i'm really convinced that employment issues are one of the most key issues and that labor and employment touches every facet of people's lives

soapy

and i got the privilege to work on some pretty-high stakes stuff, which further made me realize how important this all is

soapy

13:01

how's it like working for the teamsters?

KnowledgeableGaudyMillipede

13:03

thats awesome. agree with everything you said! its cool. i was a UPS driver and became a shop-steward at my building. then became an organizer in our amazon division. so ive mostly worked with truck drivers and warehouse workers. its extremely important work! also very difficult. these companies are very powerful and break the law A LOT

do you know where you want to end up living?

soapy

13:04

oh that's cool! UPS made some big wins recently, yeah? are there any challenges you've found working w the Amazon division? i've heard some horror stories abt the things Amazon does to suppress worker rights and I wonder if that spills over to UPS

soapy

13:05

I'm pretty open to anywhere! Hbu?

we had a big contract campaign in 2023. i was very involved in that. was an exciting moment. there are a million challenges. to keep it simple: the turnover rate combined with amazon's willingness to illegally retaliate against workers for organizing makes organizing feel like building a house of cards

ChowieBean

13:06

cuz i lowkey just dont wanna retake

soapy

13:09

When the fees for illegal retaliation are low enough, and when any punishment takes years to enstate, many companies just see those fines as the cost of doing business. Amazon is for sure like that

and later in life and/or ideally something in healthcare accessibility

jackfrost11770

13:49

reallt two can go hand in hand, especially working for companies such as pfizer which is one of the few companies that actually work towards access like suspending patents and funding manufacturing costs

jackfrost11770

13:49

but overall tbh, will have to shell out first (that sent, so early my bad)

jackfrost11770

13:50

but especially with the advent of technologies such as AI there will be massive ethical and legal issues in their development and implementation, so hopefully i'll be able to work in that field in a way that takes these considerations into account

ChowieBean
