Union workers picket in Las Vegas, worried about pay, security and robots taking their jobs: “We want to make sure we’re not lost to the robots... we [want to] have some time to adjust and train for new jobs over the next five years.” [LA Times] https://t.co/3OH2dWT1TW

@TomJawetz Also this Administration (see NLRB and DOL) is actively undermining worker rights and protections so to ask them to come down hard on employers for anything is laughable.

@ChrisCinciBiz What is the relevance of Murray’s Japanese fluency? Japanese is not one of the official languages of Singapore. Also Millennium & Copthorne Hotels is headquartered in London.

I love labor reporting more than anything and Im not too proud to beg on the internet for money to do it.
