Strike over as Woolworths workers accept new offer from supermarket giant

Strikes work.
Industrial action works.
Unions work for the workers.
Woolies is no friend of workers.
The Fair Work Commission is not fair.
The United Workers Union got Woolies management to finally agree not to punish workers for their speed of work, and to give workers a boost in wages.
The "framework" that Woolies was trying to foist on its warehouse workers would have required warehouse staff to achieve a 100% performance and speed.
The union called it "dangerous, inhumane and unsafe". I consider it unrealistic for humans, dangerous for robots, and certain to cause injuries to anyone nearby in a short time. Think about it for a moment you'll see it was absolutely bonkers and whoever proposed it should be sacked for posing such a dire OH&S risk.
This debacle has shown that the Fair Work Commission is not fair and impartial.
Furthermore, Woolies has blown millions of dollars to show everyone they're no friend of workers.
I urge you to continue your boycott of Woolies, and start campaigning to have the Governor General clear-out LNP stooges from the FWC.
