  • Checking-in
    Just a quick check-in to let you all know what's going on with me and that I don't plan on going anywhere but to bare with me on the inconsistency of cranking these episodes out. I got plans but it's tough to execute when it's just a one-person operation.

The girls at Lowell Mill who fought against reduced wages, extended hours, and better working conditions during an era where not only workers' rights but also the rights of women and children were minimal to nonexistent.

  • Supervisors Working
    DISCLAIMER: THE OPINIONS EXPRESSED IN THIS EPISODE DO NOT REPRESENT THE COMPANY OR TEAMSTERS IN ANY WAY, JUST TWO TEAMSTERS TALKING SHOP. This topic is something I'm truly passionate about. This episode first covers basic language in the National Master Agreement followed by my interview with Lynn from the Oakley building. We discuss how we feel when dealing with this matter that takes money from our pockets. It pisses us off and we hope it pisses you off too.
