I Support the Hotel Workers💜😻
There are plenty of new replacements coming across the border....lol
ive encountered plenty of venezuelans migrants while traveling through south america... they are not liked in other south american countries because they are lazy and dont like to work... i imagine they wont be good hotel workers...
That’s exactly what democrats wage. Cheap labor
They're not coming to steal your wealth, they're coming to save their families from the criminal element in their home countries, present, in part, to US business involvement
Security must be pissed off they aren't getting paid livable wages either but still forced to work instead of picketing.
By definition, they are paid a livable wage. Also, they live in affordable housing.
Affordable housing in Southern California? You must not be California.
Still it is wrong for hotel security to put their hands on anyone.
@@jorgelinares9394 Im in BC Canada. We have a serious housing crises and mass immigration problem here. not to mention increased homelessness. And a dumb ass prime minister that keeps importing more people here. Our situation is as bad if not worse then yours!
Security workers are not "forced" anymore than the hotel workers. Sometimes ones situation is such, that one has to bite the bullet to insist on their fair share. Also, the security guards are not properly trained if they erupt into violence rather than de escalating the situation. picketers walk around in circles, chanting and brandishing signs on sticks. The former administration advocated for violating the personal rights of folks with whom you disagree.
I’m sure those people coming from Texas would love those jobs.
until they can’t afford to live on those wages here.
No ur wrong people in Texas are living in Texas to avoid California. I moved to San Antonio during 2020 best desicion ever
@@buckbuckboom6241lol he was talking about the illegal immigrants
@@buckbuckboom6241Move to Texas from Jersey. Same Blue reasons!
How is protesting on private property legal? Sounds like Democrat corruption to me!
Next they will be picking in your bedroom for not sleeping with Trannies!
Im sure those people from California that came to Tx and now they are in their way back would love those jobs
This guy's want more money... then go.back to school, get a degree.
Easier said than done. Most can’t focus on acquiring a diploma to get a job that may not even pay that well
@@glennlac4773 then get one that does! I went back to school, I pay for my retirement plan, life insurances , I'm not waiting on my employer to give me benefits and pay for my retirement. Work a full time and do part time school. And dont say you cant because you have children. I ave 1 and he's now in a university .
correct because taking out a half of millions in school loans only to get a job that pays 40k a year is always a great investment
@boston312 your comment makes no sense. A trade course or career college would run you about 10 to 15k for a year and net you on a career path of 50k plus as long as you continue to educate yourself. You are clearly clueless, in fact no one pays " half of millions for a 40k salary"
I have represented custodial workers who had college degrees, but liked the work and the hours (one fellow worked nights and just continued going to school) But tell me, how long would you work in a building that had no one cleaning the floors, walls, toilets, sinks, etc? Clearly, a clean facility has value. It should have a living wage value. classism is an ugly thing. My pop had an 8th grade education. He got a good union job and, thanks to the GI bill (and being white) was able to buy a home, live a decent life and pass that property (wealth) to me. He was offered higher paying jobs at the railroad, but wouldn't take them because he would not be happy working inside. (drove my mom nuts, but in his sixties, he decided to go inside, the weather got to him) BTW, he also taught himself trigonometry, and continued learning his entire adult life.
There was a time when virtually any job could provide a worker with a decent life. No more, especially here in CA. with these foolish Woke Democrats running this pathetic state
You might want to research your statement. Yes, there was a time... as you say.... it had to do with unions and their workers fighting for paid sick leave, vacation, health care and community colleges. The unions created the weekend AND the middle class. If you check you might find that we went backwards during Republican influence and improved financially and in care for we the people, under democratic direction (though there have been bad folks in both parties) but democratic platform has in recent past been focused on the community that is Americans and the Republicans, since after Eisenhauer, work for big business.
You can't block people from coming into the Hotel to stay
Some people have to work 80 hours a week to afford a 3000$ apt in LA
So sick of people on "strike" do your job.
Are you against people using their constitutional rights?
@@prolific1518 don't worry flix is prob unemployed 😆
Even the earliest strikers were beaten and dispersed. Aren’t strikes what secured a 40hr work week and 8 a day with breaks? Striking is the only bargaining chip people have against massive companies.
@@jeanmember striking also help create the 5 day work week bc people used to work 6 days a week. Also child labor finally disappeared after workers were finally able to have a say in matters
They are doing their job. Their job is to do good work at a living wage.
Protesting on private property? How is that legal?
By law, any property where "any public person can come & go" can also be protested upon and can be leafleted. Most folks (especially most management) are unaware that this is according to the National Labor laws. I worked in a hospital. The Hospital Cafeteria is accessible to anyone in the public. No one checks you in at the door of a hospital, and no one prevents you from going into the cafeteria for lunch while visiting your friend or family member. Per federal law that means any union worker or representative from any local can go to the cafeteria and distribute leaflets to make folks aware of the contentions between the negotiating parties or to solicit for interest in organizing.
@@chanaham That's not a Federal law. Thats a bs California Law. The labor laws are different in every state. And it's unconstitutional.
@@user-is5vw4jt6w Google the National Labor Relations ACT.. (BTW "national" refers to federal.... it's a federal law"
National Labor Relations Act
The NLRA protects workplace democracy by providing employees at private-sector workplaces the fundamental right to seek better working conditions and designation of representation without fear of retaliation. It is administered by the Federal National Labor Relations Board (NLRB)
Business will pay what is fair not what you think you’re entitled to. If the work you are doing does not pay enough, use it as a stepping stone, prepare, educate yourself to get a better job. If you don’t, you have no right to demand for a better life.
They won't pay you what is fair, most businesses will pay you the lowest amount they can get away with it, educate yourself and use this as a stepping stone for next time you wanna stick up for businesses that don't pay reasonable wages
businesses and CEO are so fair that we never have to worry about their Greed to destroy the world economy (smh)
You must not understand how our world works when you are monopoly you say what is fair.
Vanguard is owns everything and is a private company too, no conspiracy the illumati is real and they are it.
This is America...you can do whatever the fawk you want...including asking for more pay...you fawking cummie
Several of these Hotels are involved with ECLS Limousine to Fraud the Treasury for Trillions
If I wasted my money on corrupt unions I'd strike too
Granted, there have been some corrupt union leaders. The more active & involved the actual members are, the more knowledgeable the workers are of their own responsibility to representing the CBA, the better and stronger the union. My union local was strong, but was trusteed out by a corrupt leadership in the International. We then applied to the NLRB to establish a "new" member driven union and that union is strong. A union, like our government, can not be left to others to handle. We the people, we the workers, have to make sure it stays on track.
That s just why i love California
Those Spanish speaking strikers are just angry Taylor Swift didn't cancel her own shows (^_^)
You really are speaking out of your ass huh...

LAWSUIT=$$$$$$$$$$$
This Hotel is closing down . These workers are gone very soon. This strike is a Waste of time... It will take 3 years to demolish and the rebuild a $ 700,000,000 resort . the owner is Michael Dell ,founder of Dell Computer corp. He bought the company that owns the hotel , Miramar LP Inc.., in 2006. for $200,000,000.. By not changing ownership , the property taxes stay the same . $860,000 a year, instead of $ 2.1 million if He bought the hotel himself. . Miramar will retain an 8% stake . . he split ownership 3 ways . His wife owns 49%, He owns 43% and Miramar LP owns 8% They haven't put any money into this property since 2006. because it is being torn down .The building permits and environmental impact reports take years and years in Santa Monica. they are notorious for taking a long time to approve new construction.. Any time now they will close and those workers will be looking for work. elsewhere.
Unite and stand together in common cause 🎉
Nope
Big business tries to convince you that (poor, scared) immigrants are stealing from you. Trust me, it ain't that poor guy that's robbing you blind or keeping you down. A favorite picture I've seen has 3 men at a table. The fellow at the head of the table has a plate overflowing with cookies in front of him. The immigrant on the left side of the table has a cookie. The US worker on the right side of the table has two cookies. The fellow with the overflowing plate of cookies is saying to the US worker "careful, that guy is trying to steal your cookies." Rich folks want you to believe that it isn't the welfare they receive from our Taxes thanks to (mostly) Republican legislation and de-regulation - but rather, the piddling amounts (in comparison) of our tax dollars that help the disabled, the poor, underpaid workers, hospital and health and welfare. DON'T BUY IT.
It is what it is
Can you really protest on private property? I thought it was public spaces but, no one can go to your house and start protesting..
Tell the trump terrorists who go after any one he names that. (yes, I agree with you)
Nothing will happen,, the "union" system is a complete scam and you get what you get for that. The people that want a union at my job are some of the laziest, crap workers at the place. Thankfully they lose Everytime they try and it's always "recent hires" on their way out😂😂.

Can security really detain you?
Depends. Private Property. Was a Crime Committed? Did they Press Charges? Local Law Depends. Lawsuits almost always come.

Ya, 20 dollars a hour to clean rooms, 20 dollars a hour starting pay to pour concrete, common sense used to exist
Tell me if you want to stay in a hotel where no one cleans the room, no one cleans the toilets. Do you suppose there's value in staying in a place that is clean, that has someone who will run up to your room for your every whim? You have no idea the complicated training in handling the cleaning products and caring for each of the rooms in 4 star hotels. The profit margin to owners, managers, Board of directors is extensive. In this country, and the rest of the 1st world countries - management and owners made approximately 35% more than their workers. Still true in other countries. Here, owners and boards suck up one employees annual income, daily. They make 500% and more of their workers and then complain they can't afford to pay them, and can't properly staff. Maybe the use a portion of their ridiculous incomes to staff and properly pay their employees. 40 years ago, I learned that my companies leadership were taking 700,000 a year. I'm pretty sure they could have gotten by on 200,000, and then properly staffed their hospital with the other 500,000 dollars.
Im sure those people from California that came to Tx and now they are in their way back would love those jobs way back
yes, Texas, that "right to work for less" state
It's nice that he works 17 years but why is the company responsible for his retirement. Shouldn't he have saved and made good financial choices?
What? This is so ignorant I don’t even know where to begin, go back to school kid.
100%
NO one is at fault anymore. That's why people go on "strike". Always on someone else.
@@brumaliaworks7662 you made that deal with your employer? may I know there name ? I would really like to work there please
I wish I got to make that deal =)
@@brumaliaworks7662 Few companies provide pensions anymore. Almost all retirement savings is up to the employee with employer matching % contributions to 401ks. You are there to make money, they are paying you to make money. Thats the end of the agreement, everything else is you.
