Week 5 of Trump 2.

Here's a summary of what you may have missed over the holiday break.

Not six feet under yet, but maybe 5'11"?

Grrrr.

It's all pretty good news for employers.

More leisure time to talk about quickie elections.

Are you in the know?

Not really a surprise.

What are you grateful for this year? Here is my list.

Just in time for Labor Day . . . Our favorite labor 

commentator, David Phippen of our Washington DC-Metro Office, is his usual bad* self, with the latest of President Trump’s nominees and appointees to the National Labor Relations Board, a court’s “joint employer” decision that may indicate where the now-Republican Board will end up on this issue, the UAW defeat at Nissan in Mississippi, union-related scandals at the U.S. Postal Service and between Chrysler and the UAW, and — a pro-union vote at a chain of erotica shops in New York. (Leave it to David to make labor relations sexy.) Oh, and I almost forgot – a herd of goats taking union jobs in Michigan.

*By “bad,” I mean “awesome.”
