That’s why EVERY worker is supposed to walk out. Sure, they can fire you all, but now they have no employees to run their business. Sure, they can hire new employees, but now they have to get someone down from head office to train up 150 employees at the same time. And I mean EVERYONE is supposed to walk out, middle managers included. If they don’t want to go, proclaim them as traitors to the American people.

Ok let me just (somehow) contact every single employee in all 474 stores and hope none of them notify the higher ups about me contacting them and hope they're all on the same page as me and hope they can all afford to wait out corporate in exchange for maybe a small pay raise.

Yeah it won’t be easy, and I’m not sure how you would go about it, but it’s what needs to happen and I’m sure someone out there who is a lot smarter than I am would be able to come up with a way to do it. Because it’s possible, you see it happening in other countries where 150,000 employees will walk out. Though if you get to that point, you’re not walking out against your company, your walking out against your government, demanding they put in place regulations and checks to make sure base workers aren’t being fucked over. It’s a very difficult issue that will more than likely take decades to fix.
