Union busting

Fruity cargo cult Apple has been accused of illegally interrogating and making coercive statements to employees during a union drive at one of its retail stores in Atlanta, Georgia.

The National Labour Relations Board said Jobs’ Mob was being investigated because of charges filed by the Communications Workers of America, which has previously claimed that the company’s antics “made a free and fair election impossible” at the location.

The NLRB’s regional director “found merit” to the allegations and ones that Apple held captive-audience meetings, according to Kayla Blado, a spokesperson for the regulator.

Apple must settle the case or face the NLRB filing a complaint against it which is a little like being savaged by a sheep as the regulator can’t levy financial penalties but can only force the company to put up a sign that informs workers of their real legal rights, rather than what Apple managers thing is good for the company.
