Welcome again to Saturday Morning Home Repair blogging, where we talk about fixing houses and the things in them that are supposed to work for us. An ad hoc cadre of building professionals and gifted amateurs attempt to answer questions that arise from readers, and offer encouragement and advice for those inclined to do things for themselves, if they can. We all do a lot of things, collectively, and can probably help out with insights from our vast experience. Or sometimes, we just gab.
Have an interesting story or project to share? Contact Glen The Plumber about posting it for Saturday Morning Home Repair.
good morning: as a strong supporter of union labor...UA local #393...I will not be providing answers to your home repair questions until Daily Kos management agrees to meet and negotiate with the site’s union employees at the Daily Kos Guild.
if this site wants to be the home of progressive activists...it must put the concerns of workers first...starting with their own.
DKG calls on Daily Kos Management to:
- enter into and honor good faith negotiations with the DKG about layoffs, and allow DKG to work with management to avoid cuts to personnel;
- be honest and transparent about the organization’s financial status, including an audit of Daily Kos’ finances by CWA financial analysts, and an independent audit;
- keep Daily Kos’ mission, the Daily Kos Community, and our collective activism at the heart of any decision about the organization’s future.
We're asking management to show us the math and let us solve this problem—without sacrificing Daily Kos' mission or people. We're asking supporters, friends, allies, donors, and readers to sign our petition:
Tell Daily Kos to uphold its mission, values, and commitment to working people.
