Speaking for myself, I will never set foot in the Elysian location in Capitol Hill after this, purchase any Elysian beer, or for that matter anything Anheuser-Busch makes.
So much for being a local brand
God, corporate America is so fucked. Starbucks, Amazon, Microsoft, Boeing, Google. That’s a quick, off-the-top-of-the-head list of LOCAL companies that have bought in on aggressive union busting in the last few years. There are infinitely more national brands that decided that execs making fast profits is more important than workers’ livelihoods.
Just look at what Rodger May did to Peter Pan Seafoods. Perfect example of cutthroat capitalist bullshit. Thousands of jobs lost, skyrocketing prices for consumers, bargain prices for the guy who caused it.
And if you personally know of any work available involving technical writing, logistics/procurement, industrial process data management, recipe scaling, or similar stuff, please let me know because a really good friend of mine is out of a job because of this union busting bullshit
Every major brewery/distillery in Canada is union.
