Sounds about right. I know of a current strike where workers are asking nearly 25%.
This hike in living expenses needs wages to catch up since no one seems willing to roll back to normal on “supply chain” hikes during COVID.

'roll back'" fk that, they're still going up.. and up.. and up.
Disney+ abonament can go up 80% and nobody cares. Union asks for 25% raise...and it's shocking
(And, yeah, regular household needs to face much more than just the Disney+ fees)
I think most people support the union on this one. Polls show overwhelming support, across the political spectrum.
Damn, I was really hoping they'd get the 4-day workweek too. Still, good for them! Breathe new life into unions in this country.
Workers getting paid. Always a good thing.
record pay raise
well how do you like that.. it sounds like there might actually be enough money for them to pay workers after all.. how the heck do you think they managed to find it all of a sudden like that?
They found spare change from all the couches in executives' offices?
/s
that's what i'm saying.. they remember to look places they must have forgot to look before!
This will only make Ford slowly and quietly move their operations to countries that don't have unions. Should take them about 4 and a half years to do it.
