![[image of the 7 corners new seasons worker elevator sticker mural, commonly called the 7 Corners snake. It is made up of thousands of yellow produce stickers, filling the elevator. They overlap each other like scales, forming a giant snake.]
Overlaid over the image is the text
“Save the Snake!
New Seasons Market wants to make participating in creating this mural a fireable offense. Today during bargaining the company stated their desire to add language that would make this snake an immediately fireable offense of “defacement.” This snake is a beloved symbol in the seven corners back of house elevator and the product of years of employee effort.
We believe that the company should honor and continue its longstanding practice that allows employee art in all its forms. So what do you think? Let us know your comments below!”
