Union Organizing California Weed Workers
Edited on Sun May-30-10 06:14 AM by douglas9
You know an industry has hit the big time when labor unions decide it's time to organize the workers. So, it looks like California's medical marijuana workers are about to reach new highs now that the United Food and Commercial Workers Local 5 in San Jose has begun organizing local pot purveyors. Here's the big question, though: How long before they start showing up to picket non-union shops with a giant inflatable bong?
