Strand Bookstore Union Negotiations in Cartoon Format

Cartoonist Greg Farrell has drawn a cartoon strip about union contract negotiations at the Strand Bookstore.
Earlier this month, union members at the New York City bookstore voted to reject a contract proposal from the famous bookstore. Follow this link to see the complete comic strip.
The New York Times has more about the negotiations: “The workers, along with the Strand’s roughly 140 other union workers, had just concluded a four-day vote on the management’s latest contract offer. As expected, it was rejected because many of the employees felt that it would have significantly reduced their benefits.” (Via The Awl)
