Tesla Inc.’s labor dispute is expanding to Denmark, where the country’s largest union said it will halt shipments of the cars to Sweden in support of striking workers in the biggest Nordic country.
Like repair shops could prevent repairs because to get parts they need to interact with Tesla, which they will refuse, but if a Tesla needed gasoline, can a gas shop actually prevent a customer from filling their tank?
The strike isn’t against the customer, so I’m not sure that’d be allowed?
So you’re saying gas stations refusing to fuel trucks transporting a Tesla? If those trucks are a 3rd party company would that be okay? Can they sympathy strike against a different entity?
100% agree if they are teala employees operating the trucks.
This whole thing and all the side implications are fascinating to watch unfold
Eventually I think Tesla wouldn’t use someone that’d also join the strike, so probably a foreign non unionized trucker, but treating then as scabs make sense then and blocking them that way.
We all love them for that. If there’s one thing you about french people you have to admire it’s their willingness to use collective bargaining and fuck shit up.
Good luck trucking across the sea. And having to deal with the brexit bureaucracy
You know there is both a tunnel between UK and France and a bridge between Denmark and Sweden?
Doesnt make it an efficient option, but it is possible.

Don’t the strikes need to target Tesla?

Thanks for all the insight and discussion!

I don’t think the French will pass on an opportunity to strike, no matter the reason.
