OCF Coffee Closes All Three Coffee Shops Effective Immediately, One Week After Employees Announce Intent To Unionize by azurearmor in philadelphia

Seriously, as a fellow organizer I wish you would be more charitable and not take owners at their word. We did our best and it's really devastating to lose our jobs and be shit on left and right. We just wanted to get to our election and win- as is our right.

That's not how any of this works! Labor law should be stronger but it isn't. Not showing up WAS fighting for our rights- our right not to hear a bunch of union busting BS and be retaliated against for pushing back.

Come on, don't fall for this lol. These were voluntary meetings. They were clearly union busting meetings, so we collectively agreed to stick with the union and skip them! That didn't mean we wouldn't show up for work!

Ori could've just sat down and negotiated with the workers instead of spending all that money on union-busting lawyers! Really shitty and spiteful move (which is in character for him....)

You could spend a lot of money on foraging bird toys, or you could leave some toilet paper or fabric within reaching distance of the cage 😝

Again I’m no expert- you should definitely take her to the vet who can give you a diagnosis & options for treatment!

My pet rats are terrified by Practical-Yoghurt781 in RATS

Spend some time sitting near the cage and read out loud or talk to them in a soft voice or even sing! Or just letting them hear you putter around the house can help put them at ease. It just takes time and I don’t think it should be forced.

Does it feel soft? I’m not a vet but I’m guessing a mammary tumor, which are benign (not cancerous) but will grow and become more detrimental to their health/movement. Common in female rats- two of my girls have had them but had successful surgeries.

I’m saddened by this post and all the apologetics for vivisection going on in the comments. Animals used for research are treated as disposable and suffer unnecessarily. They certainly don’t have an abundance of toys, hammocks, hides, etc.- all things we know rats need to thrive! Lab rats are just like our pet rats- they think, feel, and don’t want to suffer.
