They needed a politician with brains, so they sent AOC.

What is this practice picketing thing? you should be appointing a picket captain, making assignments, checking with banks to see about making late payments to help those that may need it and that stuff. practice picking, what the f**k.

Workers don't automatically know anything about striking if they've never struck before. Practice picketing builds confidence & solidarity, draws public attention and puts pressure on the company. And you can talk to members about all of what you just mentioned at these gatherings.

you can do that in a setting where you discuss assignments. Where to picket, shifts so you are there 24/7.

Like a paper route. It builds character.

Yes it does. People who try it generally feel pretty good about participating.

Of course it is popular with the members ! EVERYONE who works for UPS loves the idea of striking them . For the FIRST day , after the reality sets in it becomes less popular.

When the first direct deposit evaporates, reality sets in.

That's why leadership is important. you must prepare properly. It could be a long strike, and by long i mean weeks or even months. The better prepared you are the more powerful you can be. STAY UNITED.

no, i mean local leadership. Get out and elect someone you think will do a good job. It takes work, hard work, but that's the only way.
