I usually avoid naming names at all cost but this time I will not refrain. The housekeepers kicked off a day of striking to protest working conditions at the hotel. It's the hottest day of the year with temperatures over a hundred degrees. So what does the hotel do? They turn on the outside heat lamps above the picket line. The heat lamps are designed to keep customers warm in the winter while outside.
The thing is... there is no way it could possibly have been unintentional. The lamps are not automatic and even after they were notified the lamps were on it took an HOUR to turn them off and pass out water to the employees.
Geez...I can't imagine what the problem could be that the employees would need to picket. Hmmm. If they treat their employees this way while they are outside where all the world can see it I can only imagine what conditions must be like behind closed doors.
I say, lets support the workers. That is not the only hotel in the area. Let's avoid it at all costs.
