Journalist, digital @marketplace Saving lives, one comma at a time.

Just sitting here on a Wednesday night thinking about how awful it is that @Marketplace is using Jones Day to obstruct a fair contract. Instead of paying Jones Day, how about paying overtime??? Here’s more on their reputation: https://t.co/hqxwpnz1UN

[Marketplace Union @mplaceunion]

Yesterday @marketplace management told us (via Jones Day) they have “no appetite” to provide comp time when our members work a holiday, or put in a 10 hour day.

So APMG wants low salary minimums, no comp time, and no overtime for most of us. 🤔

More soon. #WeMakeMarketplace

@jmkliegman @ACESEditors I will definitely use you as a resource! Thanks, Julie.

@BarbaraPlatts @antiochmfa Congratulations, Barbara! So happy and excited for you!

[Marketplace Union @mplaceunion]

We are back at the bargaining table today! On the agenda: layoffs, severance, & paid family leave. #WeMakeAPM #WeMakeMarketplace

Thank you @dessadarling @andywho @_LAZERBEAK_ for giving me one of my best days of work at @marketplace. Edited the web version of "Who's Yellen Now," and I'm kinda in love with it. @joebiden @janetyellen https://t.co/5UHUWiYVCP

@katecwiles I was just about to pull out a pair of shorts

[Kimberly Adams @KA_marketplace]

I'm looking forward to testifying @NLRB this week as to why @Marketplace media producers are a crucial part of the editorial and creative process. The fact this actually has to go to a hearing demonstrates an astonishing lack of insight by some as to how our shop actually runs.

[Peter Balonon-Rosen @pbalonon_rosen]

Such important work. Today would be a good day to voluntarily recognize @mplaceunion and agree to give our engineers hazard pay. They put their lives on the line going into the studios, so the rest of us can work from home.

[Rebekah Wineman @rdwneman]

We appreciate the sentiment, but these words of appreciation could be put into action by voluntarily recognizing our union and by giving hazard pay to the engineers that go into the office everyday during these dangerous times. @mplaceunion #wemakemarketplace
