1,000 workers who provide food and drinks to travelers at San Francisco International Airport are on strike, seeking what they say would be their first raise in four years.

The 1,000 strikers are members of Unite Here Local 2, a Bay Area union with 15,000 members. The airport workers work under a multi-employer joint labor agreement that covers 30 different employers spread among 84 different locations at the airport. “Passengers should bring their own food and grab coffee before arriving at SFO,” said Anand Singh, president of the union, who said the union has been in negotiations for nine months. “Almost all of SFO’s food and beverage outlets are closed.

The current wage doesn’t provide a livable wage in the San Francisco Bay Area, the union says, and wages were well above the $15 an hour minimum level in effect when the last contract was negotiated in 2018. The contract includes fully-paid health care and a traditional pension plan. “I’m on strike because I want to quit my second job and have more time with my family,” said Kristine Mauricio, a barista at both Peet’s Coffee and Black Point Cafe.

I'll use Oakland...

EXTTHROW UNDER THE BUS

We looked into bringing stores to major cities and decided the crime is out of control and nothing done to fix it. As a Black business owner I do not feel it is safe to ask my employees to work in these major cities and will be looking elsewhere. Voting R this time instead of D.

Who gives a flip.

If I hadn't had a raise in these last four years in particular, I would be on that front line!! The Bay Area gets paid more than most of California, but their cost of living is much more..

As long as you don’t block the drop off lane we’re good

Hire the illegals work for less and don't complain.
