Boycott Title

SUPPORT SMITH'S EMPLOYEES FROM LOSING THEIR BENEFITS

Boycott Description

SMITH'S IS TRYING TO TAKE AWAY WHAT LITTLE BENEFITS THEY HAVE TO OFFER THEIR EMPLOYEES AND FAMILIES. AS OF NOW SMITH'S WANTS TO TAKE AWAY HOLIDAY PAY, VACATION TIME/PAY, AND WORSE OF ALL SPOUSAL INSURANCE COVERAGE. THEY ARE NOT BUDGING AND WILL NOT BACK DOWN UNTIL THE UNION CAVES. THE EMPLOYEES ARE SMITH'S. THEY REPRESENT SMITH'S AS A BRAND AND ARE WHAT KEEPS YOU THE CUSTOMER COMING BACK AGAIN AND AGAIN. SMITH'S USED TO PRIDE THEMSELVES ON HOW GOOD THEY WERE TO THEIR EMPLOYEES NEXT TO WALMART AND OTHER CHAINS, BUT THIS WILL SINK THEM TO A LOW NOT EVEN WALMART COULD TOUCH. CORPORATE WOULD RATHER TAKE THE RUG FROM UNDER THE FEET OF THE VERY GLUE THAT HOLDS THEIR BRAND TOGETHER THAN GIVE THEM WHAT THEY WORK SO HARD TO EARN, BUT INSTEAD CONTINUES TO SPEND COUNTLESS DOLLARS ON USELESS REMODELING, AND PAY STORE DIRECTORS ANNUAL BONUSES BETWEEN 10,000-50,000 PER YEAR ON TOP OF THEIR CLOSE TO 6 FIGURE INCOMES! THEY ARE STILL IN NEGOTIATIONS SO PLEASE SHOP AT YOUR OTHER LOCAL AREA STORES FOR THE WEEK LEADING UP TO INDEPENDENCE DAY (7/4/14) AND SHOW THESE CORPORATE BIG WIGS YOUR SUPPORT FOR THEIR EMPLOYEES AND YOUR DEDICATED SMITH'S SERVICE TEAM!! YOUR SUPPORT MATTERS SO LETS SHOW CORPORATE YOU CARE ABOUT HOW THEY TREAT THEIR EMPLOYEES AND WHAT MORAL AND CUSTOMER SERVICE MEANS TO YOUR SHOPPING EXPERIENCE!!

June 4 update

Kreoger walked out of negotiations and quits with 4 days left. Kroger is trying to force an extension because members are united and strong.

UNITED WE STAND, DEVIDED WE FALL!
