yall I could CRYYYYY - in my personal life, I’ve been helping to unionise my workplace (I work in higher ed as staff) and we found out today that we’ve been certified by our state labor board!!!!

it’s been almost a year in the work to even get it off the ground, a lot of pain and challenges from the college, a potential hearing that we managed to avoid, but we’re finally recognised and can start bargaining!

I’m so excited to see this project come to fruition after so long - it has been such a relief and I haven’t been this elated is a very long time

#personal post #I’m sorry if this is weird but like I’m genuinely so excited #we found out midday but I’ve been so busy with work #like I’m so excited because for so long our faculty have been unionised and we haven’t #AND NOW WE HAVE A VOICE #like I have never been this excited I’m ready to get to work #there was supposed to be a hearing TOMORROW but the college decided to drop everything and let us be certified #which means a lot considering we were fighting with them back and forth on who could be in the unit #it’s just such a large victory and I’m so glad to be doing this work with people that I know care #so yeah sorry for the dumping but IM JUST EXCIRR #excited* lol
