      You didn’t read the article, did you?

      Powell’s Books will close all three of its retail locations on Monday, Sept. 4 as its union members gather for a single-day strike in protest of the company’s negotiation tactics. According to ILWU Local 5, the labor union representing Powell’s workers since 2000, the business has “bargained in bad faith” by not engaging with union proposals and stalling the bargaining process.

      Retail and Service Industries deserve respect in their own right.

      But this is Labor Day.
