3. Only if you let someone take them!

If you don't stand for something, you will fall for anything. Think about this, this company has a contract to build a hub for UPS. Without the workers to build this hub, what has the contractor got? No matter what these employers tell you, without your labor, they are fucked.

But the days of meaningful legal protections for labor are a thing of the past.
