Boycott Aunt Millie's Bakery - protect union contracts! |
|
Edited on Sun Feb-08-09 11:39 PM by CanuckAmok
This came down from the Teamsters page on Facebook. Please spread the word, and support your Union brothers and sisters:
"Teamsters out of Local 414 (Fort Wayne, Indiana) are in the midst of a struggle with Aunt Millie's Bakery and needs any type of help you might be able to offer. Aunt Millie's claims to be a family oriented business where they take care of their employees and put God first, but their actions are proving otherwise.
The Teamster company semi drivers are in the middle of a 5 year contract. Management has now decided they do not want to use the Teamster company drivers anymore and are sending the work to Ryder. Last year was Aunt Millie's Bakey's most profitable year ever.
Please help by giving any type of suggestions or contacting this employer to voice your opinion.
Their contact information: Customer Service Email: CustomerService@auntmillies.com President John Popp: 1-800-995-8245 or 260-424-8245 Chris Popp: 1-800-995-8245 x220 or 260-424-8245"
Thanks, CanuckAmok, Local 213

3. They have a local bakery here and while I love the smell I can't say the same for the taste. |
|
I stopped buying their products years ago. Their bread is very crumby and to me has no flavor. When you try to put butter on toast you end up with several pieces because it just falls apart.

6. Post-It notes saying "Union Buster!" might be found in my local grocery. |
|
I have zero tolerance for union-busting companies.
:grr:
