Union reaches tentative agreement with Giant, likely avoiding strike

The United Food and Commercial Workers Union Local 400 has reached a tentative collective bargaining agreement with Giant parent company Ahold, averting a strike if the agreement is approved by members at a meeting today. A marathon negotiating session that ran late Tuesday produced the breakthrough.

According to a UFCW Local 400 spokesperson, the deal will preclude takebacks Ahold had sought in the new contract. If successful, the agreement will avert a damaging holiday-season strike.

    Why not take a picture of the Giant itself, instead of just the sign at the entrance to the shopping center?

    Are you not allowed on the property anymore?

      Now you may go back to fantasizing that Robert Dyer is Anthony Bourdain's brother by another mother.

    9:25am you're the guy who imagines himself as a Michelin guide reviewer of local chain restaurants.
    There's good reason you're not invited to restaurants and Dyer is. :)
