UFCW 880 has pulled its member out on strike from six stores in the Greater Cleveland area over stalled contract talks. The union issued this press release “Local 880 is asking the public to support the workers in their battle with this corporate giant, to refrain from shopping at Rite Aid, and to take all new prescriptions to union pharmacies at Acme, CVS, Dave’s, or Giant Eagle. Local 880 is also asking customers to pull any existing prescriptions from Rite Aid for one year to show their support for the workers and to send a strong message to Rite Aid.” (Emphasis added.) And somehow this makes perfect sense to them.
