I’ve always been weary of buying from dollar stores, i generally avoid them unless i’m buying disposable stuff and even then it’s pretty rare that i do.

Same here. When I do I try to buy from a non-chain store since these tend to be entry-level immigrant owned-and-operated businesses. The merch seems to be exactly the same.

I was mildly involved in the effort to unionize the graduate student workers at the University of Missouri.
Fun fact!: Missouri is a state which has the right to unionize in it’s state consitution. The Right to Work law will make it difficult for unions to collect the needed money to function, but they can’t actually prevent a union from forming as it’s a right just as speech is a right.
This lady will likely make a tidy settlement.

Isn’t Missouri (like much of the US) an at-will employment state? In which case (as I understand it), the only thing you can’t be fired for is membership in a protected class.
