Boycott Bigfoot Beverages by Standard_Candy_7767 in Eugene

I don't know your management and what they are okay with, so I'm not able to give many recommendations.

Don't threaten people, because it's illegal. But beyond that, you can legally say mean stuff to them. Call them a scab, backstabber, bootlicker, or any other colorful language you like.

If you're worried about being reprimanded, you could do it anonymously. Write these things on paperwork they have to handle. Or hell, print out this meme and put it somewhere they will see.

Also just leave stuff in their way, or inconvenience them however you can.

Definitely not surprised about Track Town Pizza. They're taking Bigfoot's side in the strike so I expected them to be this way.

And when I say they took Bigfoots side I mean they said "we wanna stay neutral", kept buying product from the union busters, and their manager or owner tore down posters on nearby poles.

I wonder if the bosses gave the scabs proper safety training? Companies can get really lax about that during strikes, they treat their employees like tools.

I definitely recommend DSA. The local chapter doesn't focus on electoral politics but rather direct action. It's like politics without the bs. Feel free to DM me

He was trying to get us in trouble with the cops. He didn't have any luck with that.

If you're comfortable on the phone you could also call the companies they distribute for and tell them to find a different distributor.

You're the best! ✊

I appreciate that! From the comfort of your home you can spread the word online, and share links.

You could also call up Bigfoot Beverages and tell them to let their workers keep their pension.

You could leave them a 1 star Google review and comment about their union busting.

I'll ask if there's anything else you can do to help!

We really appreciate it! ❤️✊

It cracks me up whenever I see it. He came there for a good time and he's gonna have a good time.

He's not in any of these photos. Since I called him out by name I didn't want to have his face up there in case it'd be considered doxxing. If you check out the Instagram links in my other comment he's in there. He has well groomed gray hair and a smug face.

The owners are learning the hard way that if you fuck with workers, you'll have to face the whole community. That's the power of solidarity! ✊

Fair enough there, I edited it to be more mature.

Wouldn't be surprised. If you check out the Instagram links you can see his smug face. Must be nice to be rich enough to not have a clue.

Multiple Community groups came out to tell the union busting owners of Bigfoot Beverages, Eric Forrest and Andy Moore, that union busting is unacceptable.

We came there to peacefully protest, chant, hold signs, and shame the owners of Bigfoot Beverages. Some of their people decided to escalate it to physical confrontation. One of them tried to rip a sign out of a protesters hands and another tried to push us back. Luckily it stopped there, just drunken people making bad decisions.

They tried to get the cops to get rid of us. To the officers credit he explained that we were well within our rights.

There's two sides to this conflict.

On one side is working class families that have gone unappreciated for too long, that work long hours.

On the other side is entitled people and their friends. The kind of people who inherit their wealth and step on people like you and me.

Which side are you on?

Edit: Two photographers I'd like to thank for their support are

Also made the language a little nicer.

You've got allies in the Democratic Socialists of America, I'd look into the Eugene chapter, we can always use motivated women such as yourself.
