Tartine owners hire notorious crisis flack to fight workers’ unionization efforts (Via EaterSF)
, Berkeley Tartine barista and union supporter Matthew Torres expressed wishes for the best. “I hope that Tartine and their hired consultants will act in good faith during this process,” he said, “as the ILWU has for 82 years.
We are concerned that they mentioned in the second letter that there will be conflict at Tartine if we do not agree today to their demand for immediate recognition through a card check. Using such threats of conflict is not how we communicate with each other. And, it only stands to reason that if these tactics upset our customers, it will hurt Tartine’s business and could possibly have an impact on your work opportunities as a result.
Sadly, in just a few days there is already some bullying and a lot of misinformation being spread on the internet and on social media about Tartine, your working conditions and most importantly, what can happen if we have a union at Tartine. This is an example of how the union and its supporters will attempt to tarnish Tartine’s reputation if they do not get what they want.
