When we wrote our contract, we included a successor clause.

Today hundreds of our @NYTimesGuild members were denied access to their contract talks. Management refused to bargain if they were present. This is unacceptable. It’s time for @nytimes to stop stalling and start bargaining.
Unacceptable. Your move 🤡

Why are we organizing a union?
Reason #2: FULL STAFFING!
It’s brutal working a shift without enough baristas. When we’re forced to, we should be compensated for the extra workload we pick up.
We’re fighting for a union contract with the changes Starbucks partners need.
