I work at a non profit and we just won union recognition and are slowly moving towards first contract negotiations and I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT I’M DOING. Would love to chat with some folks about their experiences, especially if you’ve negotiated around contracts/grants/etc.
That’s the thing we have a group chat and I ask people about what they want to do, or even fill out the fucking survey that I spent like an hour or two making and hardly anyone responds. I’m trying super hard to not get bitchy, or just drop out completely. I know there are organizers who have been able to fight through it I just don’t know how much I can sustain the effort. Or, if I should have a straight talk convo of like “hey, if we want to be successful for ourselves and everyone else that trusted us with this we all need to support eachother let’s figure out how to make it happen and please don’t just ignore me lol”
