I find it entirely plausible that Starbucks would fire anyone who lets a news crew into the cafe after hours, even if it had nothing to do with unionizing.
It's a decision about taking away what little power the NLRB has.
if they do that then there's no reason workers have to follow the law either.
The slaves workers are bound by laws, not protected by them.
Oof probably shoulda be on the public sidewalk nearest the business (or somewhere, maybe the studio). Unfortunate to have that stimy things.
It’s important to note it was a meeting to discuss a union and they brought in a tv crew to record it. Which is fairly normal. Many union meetings have outside staff coming in; lawyers or union reps come to mind.
