This statement was posted as a comment to our last post. Wow… as we’ve mentioned in the press release (which was of course faxed to the Pantagraph along with other local media) this rally is a chance for community supporters to show Pantagraph employees that you aren’t alone. Wonder why the paper is so concerned??
Management obviously thinks we are stupid. Just wanted to let you know that they have told Advertising employees about the organizing tonight, and have told us that they want us to avoid the harassment. SO they gave us the option to leave early or to stay late. They are also taking the sales staff to Gill St. at 4:15 to avoid the union organizers, (but said it was because of the recent good work as a reward.) My suggestion is to show up early and surprise the hell out of them. Good luck!

That’s amazing. They haven’t let people leave early since the winter blizzard. Of course, you had to make up the time if you left for the weather. Did people get credit for the time. Or is the union perceived as more dangerous than the blizzard?
I don’t think they wanted us to be spared of harassment, as a constitutionally protected rally isn’t harassment. If the union reads the U.S. Constitution on the sidewalk, they’d call that harassment too.
