Cockroaches, Harassment, & Extortion: Food Company Sues SEIU Over Bully Tactics
Posted on March 22, 2011 at 2:57pm by Jonathon M. Seidl Cockroaches, bugs, mold, and flies. These are just some of the props and rumors allegedly employed by the Service Employees International Union (SEIU) against the American unit of French catering company Sodexo. And the company’s had enough. Fed up with tactics that include intimidation, extortion, and yes, sabotage that apparently includes plastic cockroaches, Sodexo filed a lawsuit against the SEIU last week under the Racketeering Influenced and Corrupt Organizations (RICO) Act. “We work constructively with unions every day but the SEIU has crossed the line by breaking the law,” Robert Stern, general counsel for Sodexo USA, said in a statement. “We will not tolerate the SEIU’s tactics any longer.”...

After managing 65 Teamster Union employees at a manufacturing facility outside Seattle for 9 years I had my fill of union management and tactics. Most of the union employees were reasonable, regular folks but some were anythign goes union hacks. The union management was all about the Union not the employee and were willign to play games and cut deals as longa s it made the Union look good. The owner of the company told me after I ahd run the plant for two years that we had more Union greivances in the two years following my taking over the plant than they had in all previous years. Myself I just think they liked spending time with me after I told them that I ran the plant not the Union.

Sorry folks but I worked for Sodexo.
They are crooks.
They are corrupt.
They deserve ANYTHING anyone throws at them.
Hope it sticks and drags them into their demise.
Dirty m----- f------ bastards every one of them.
I have sat in on numerous managment meetings where they compose their statements as they figure out more ways to dodge paying correct wages for overtime, move as many as they can to "salary" and the like.
NO SYMPATHY HERE FOR SODEXO.
Sodexo translated - FRENCH CROOKS!
;D God, I feel so much better now. Thanks.

;D God, I feel so much better now. Thanks. Be careful what you wish for, although you might take glee in this company "getting what they deserve"... There are many others that have and are going through such slander and harassment at the hands of the SEIU.... just sayin. If a company breaks the law then hammer 'em into non-existence through legal means, but just because someone doesn't like a companies business practices... oh well, they can either start their own company or go work somewhere else.
