Blue Bottle Baristas Walk Out In Boston

Boston, Massachusetts – Baristas at Blue Bottle coffee shops in Boston are so fed up with their boss’s blatant union-busting bulls–t that they walked off the job at multiple stores twice last week. They are preparing for more job actions.

This time last year Blue Bottle workers in Greater Boston voted 38-4 in a National Labor Relations Board-conducted election to join the Blue Bottle Independent Union (BBIU). This came after years of low wages and disrespect from the San Francisco-based, high-end coffee chain, part of the Nestlé corporation’s sprawling global conglomerate.
