Workers at Mack Trucks reject tentative contract deal and will go on strike early Monday

Union workers at Mack Trucks have voted down a tentative five-year contract agreement reached with the company and plan to strike at 7 a.m. Monday, the United Auto Workers union says.

Union President Shawn Fain said in a letter to Mack parent company Volvo Trucks that 73% of workers voted against the deal in results counted on Sunday.

From article:

The deal included a 19% pay raise over the life of the contract with 10% upon ratification. There also was a $3,500 ratification bonus, no increase in weekly health care contributions, increased annual lump sum payments for retirees and a $1,000 annual 401(k) lump sum to offset health care costs for employees who don’t get health insurance after retirement.

Anyone find the context free articles off-putting (offense intended for author, not OP.)? Percentage increases are easy to speak about, but useless. 10% more of jack shit is still jack shit.

Almost like someone is trying to manipulate us.

The anti labor bias in american media has always been pretty obvious. They’re having to write reports on strikes so often now it’s become obvious to even the most braindead people in the states
