No comment lest someone accuse me of “harassment” for shedding light on the situation. But pretty much everything that’s been said about the polling ended up either not being true or not happening sooooo pretty sure there will never be resolution here.

I mean reducing the lanes clearly didn’t fix anything and hasn’t had the effect they wanted it to. There has to be a better solution.

The posts realllllllyy slowed down after the election.

Wonder what’s going to take longer, finishing the mod hunt, or publishing the crime thread vote that was supposed to be published months ago and the person putting on the poll messed up and doesn’t want to put that out there.

Probably could but we’d be starting from scratch and that’s not really my thing. I actually never even asked to be a mod. I also think it’s possible to get things sorted out here still hopefully

Agreed. Traditionally though the top mod would get mad at folks to see this sorta content stayed up. Let’s see if that’s still the case. I agree this sorta stuff is when the subs at its best.

It’s literally the term…. Sure it’s not a union but still fits for folks working in the face of a strike or walk out. But you’re right in sure my words are the real harmful thing happening to those folks. It’s calling people scabs that causes poverty

Seems pretty easy to manipulate your way into being a mod if the largest requirement is subservience

That's an interesting take. Personally I think we should legislate away most gig economy jobs so that we aren't forfeiting basic labor regulations in the favor of some "move fast and break stuff" tech entrepreneurs idea of what's fair.

It's really not that complicated. The person who mandated the training wanted people out who didn't listen to them and so the training became a sort of litmus test.

Would be really interesting to see a breakdown on how folks get to the airport.

>It would be nice to see a unified front, but that surge pricing is going to be too sweet for a lot of drivers to pass up.
Sounds about right

Could argue the press piece is enough of an impact by the organizers standpoint. I'd think that may be true as well if it brought more drivers / others to their cause.

That's a funny way to say "designed to skirt labor laws and exploit people".

I mean clearly some workers want to strike. The system is designed to stifle worker organizing, but they're still trying.

Scabs are pretty common occurrences. What should the workers do would you suggest?

Mods had been asking to talk about the rules for some time to no avail FYI. I can backup what "MajorFogTime" was saying. Although I mistakenly called him Frogman for the last few months we modded together, so apparently I'm an idiot.

FYI, another mod was just removed. Seemingly for describing the situation on the current modteam. Pretty wild we have lost at least 5 active mods in the last 2 or so months.

Agreed, one thing I learned is the collective mod Team absolutely should have more power than one user. That’s just silly to not have figured it out by Reddit. But it doesn’t effect their bottom line for now, so they don’t care.

Is it really less weight when cars are just parked on it basically all the time? I’m not physicist so have no clue, but I’m guessing the reduced lane makes up for the increased average duration of car there?
