We’re just under three days away from the contract expiration between the Newspaper Guild and management of the Inquirer and Daily News, and it seems like the possibility of a strike is inching closer.
Memo just released from the Newspaper Guild:
Please remove personal items that you use or value from the workplace before our current contract expires at midnight Thursday, November 30. If a strike becomes necessary, you will not be allowed to enter the building to retrieve your belongings.
Ruh roh. Full memo after the jump.
Take personal stuff home
Please remove personal items that you use or value from the workplace before our current contract expires at midnight Thursday, November 30. If a strike becomes necessary, you will not be allowed to enter the building to retrieve your belongings.
Your bargaining committee is working hard to avert a strike. If one becomes necessary it will be because the new owners are being too aggressive in seeking to force us to help pay for their purchase of our newspapers.
Keep working until you hear from your union officers that a strike has been called.
We will keep you posted on our progress and give you advance warning if the union is preparing to call a strike. Still it is prudent for many reasons to go ahead and take your stuff home.

I really hope that this finally puts these jokes of newspapers out of their misery. I don’t even know anyone that reads them.
