Again, a department within a Target store DID succeed at union within a Target store. Ryan’s efforts to unionize an entire store are totally unrelated to trying to unionize individual departments.

Totally does apply. It happened before the merger. There’s no reason to think NLRB would behave differently today.

It was a pre-warning.
Also, don't accuse people of being management just because they don't agree with you.
That's union organizing 101. You want to change people's minds, not alienate them.

My grandfather was a Wobbly (Industrial Workers of the World) organizer in the 30's, back when they shot you for that sort of thing.
He voted for Eugene Debs 3 times. I still have my grandfathers Little Red Songbook.
I had an Uncle who was a old school Communist and my mom was a socialist.
My dad was in the carpenters union all of his life.
I'm a member of a union right now.
I think unions are always working peoples best option.
But I'm not going to put people on blast because they don't think unionizing Spot is going to work.
That is not how you gather support.

That’s a very fine heritage you have

The Break Room is NOT an official service of Target Corp.

This is a site run by regular people. We do not perform any HR related services or affect any internal information regarding Target.

Also, probably the stupidest thing you can do is use this website to try to organize a union when connected to a Target computer/wireless network. Until you get the cards signed, there are many many many many things Target can and will do within the confines of the law to stop you.
 
Also, we do not welcome spammers here. If your entire purpose is to discuss unionization, that is not a subject that forum staff want to entertain. If you were a member of the community in good standing and had questions or wanted to discuss, sure there's some leeway. You registered less than 24 hours ago and have been pumping this topic full of union chat. Cool, but maybe you should take it to Twitter while it's still free.

It’s not stupid to educate people on how they can use the law (“microbargaining”) to organize their workplace. Also, Target can do nothing.

Dude, you don't listen do you.
This isn't about censorship.
This is about a brand new member busting in, calling old timers names, spamming the board, and being a bit of a dick.
That's not how you organize.

For fucks sake.
You get to know the people, find out what the issues are, what makes them tick, what they need.
Then you show why what you have to offer would be better than what they have.
You don't insult people who disagree with you.
You find common ground and see if you can move them.
If you can't then work with others.

Just don't be a dick.

This thread is going nowhere at this point.
It's time to be locked.
If you want to do more union stuff take it to Off-The-Clock.
