Jump To Comment: 2 1Dunno about any injunction. There was a sizeable picket at the airport roundabout today at 10am. At least 30 or so. Some good support from passing motorists too.
Keep it up guys!!
"Otis offers a supportive environment where employees are encouraged to develop their skills and talents to their fullest potential." - well this is what every company will tell you, including when 90 % of the stuff has temporary contracts of 3 months, everybody works for 5 people with unpaid ("voluntary"...) overtime, no benefits whatsoever, creepy micromanagement which will make you sick and a salary which lets you develop rather a depression than your "full potential".
I've been working for a couple of those corporations for quite a time now and i know the difference between their propaganda and the reality cannot be greater.
There is a reason as well why you have this army of completely unproductive supervisors and similar individuals in every company. Their reason of existence is to justify the terror and to produce lies, nothing else.
