I was really surprised by this development. Companies seemed to be bowing to worker pressure to change the rule in the workplace, then this popped up in the news yesterday. Swift is a Brazilian-owned mega company, one of five-ish that controlls most of the beef in this country. It is attempting to buy out two of the other major players, a deal which, if completed, will concentrate sales in very few hands.

Bit of a surprise that Swift demonstrated some back-bone with those muslibs. The article in the Rocky Mountain Pravda didn't mention it, but the hiring of the muslibs has caused huge externality problems for the town and they've complained to Swift.
ReplyDeleteCrime, disease, welfare, property values etc...
You can pray while doing any activity... no need to stop work to do so.
ReplyDeleteGood Job Swift!
Good to see Swift display back-bone, for sure.
ReplyDeleteI get tired of people complaining about job conditions after they've been hired when they knew what the constraints/duties were before they took the job.
Troll, I too thought it was about time someone stood up to the situation
ReplyDeleteFC, well said..in your line of work I am sure there is a lot of praying while doing something else, such as while taking a science test. lol And I agree
Joated, exactly, and all too common. We get a lot of it in this area with low level elected officials. They run for office, get elected, then whine about the hours and pay. Dang!
