Yes I will. It is unfortunate that the workers at Fred Meyer are in this position. I unfortunately was in a Union for 22 years. Unions don't pull the bottom up, they pull the top down. The Unions and their Officers are corrupt. I will shop there "especially" if they are on strike.

Sorry if the workers vote to go on strike but no matter what they do we all still need to purchase food in order to eat.

I hear you. Are you positive there are no other options in your area for grocery shopping? Have you reached out to the grocer's union? They may have suggestions for people in your position.

Unions support the weak and lazy. Exceptional people rise to the top and don't need unions.

It is important to support these workers that are trying to make a better living. I would NEVER cross a picket line and I hope no one else will do that as well. Fred Meyer can afford a major remodel so of course, they can afford to give their workers better wages and benefits.

I would never cross a picket line. I support workers trying to improve their working conditions. They need our support to help influence management

I would not be a scab nor cross a picket line. Viable or not

Grocery workers have really been essential to our Oregon communities. This has been an incredibly tough and dangerous time to be face to face with the public day in and day out through this pandemic. I value the work and risks taken by all grocery workers. They should be compensated for these risks.

As someone overworked and under paid most of my life I support those that I can.

Mayor Fitz has already indicated there’s a water issue so why are we bringing a huge business into Redmond without a resolution first? There’s also a huge traffic consideration that needs to be addressed.

You can grow or you can die. If parents want their children to grow up and to live here we need growth to do that. Good jobs! Next we need to get the cost of housing here down so people who grow up here can afford to buy homes here!

Amazon jobs are not good jobs. For example, they make their employees pee in plastic bottles...

I love that it will bring more jobs, and no longer waiting 1-2 weeks for delivery
