Angel’s Union Authorizes Strike

Oh dear. Angels fans be wary! The workers who sell hot dogs and beer at Angel Stadium may strike. If you’re like me, you can’t go to an Angel game an not get a beer and a hot dog. A typical food-service cashier at Angel Stadium makes $12.88 an hour. Apparently, similar jobs pay more in other stadiums. More than 500 workers have authorized union leaders to call for a strike if contract negotiations remain stagnant. Read the full article here.

Angel’s owner Arte Moreno needs to fix this fast.
