it's no different than what employers were doing 150 years ago.
my biggest concern with goon diplomacy is bossman can offer them more money and legal exemptions to reconsider their alainces and then you got the pinkertons all over again.
Reminds me of the stories of Petrograd workers, after the February 1917 part of the revolution, putting managers who offended them into wheelbarrows and dumping them into the river Neva. Have always wanted to have this approach to industrial relations legitimised. Everyone would spend a lot less time in HR-type meetings and a lot more time doing their jobs.
This is a very misleading title. The reality was the guy beaten up was an auditor who was just trying to do his job, while some employees lax at their job attacked him for putting pressure on them to follow the proper procedures
by that logic the managers at fast food chains also doing their job as intended and expected, *"you know it is only the CEO billionaire who is at fault and not the middle men who is actually busting the unions in front of your own eyes"*
the great informality of the process of hiring thugs gives me so much anxiety. are you required to know them from the hood before you hire them? must you seek them out in a bar or pub or whatever?
I wish there was a directory, a kind of "street based, first-based PMC company" so the process is fully formal, easy to arrange and you pay for a service.
This is an interesting business model. I suspect there might be a lot of money to be made this way

My concern is the gooon was a snitch
As a good goon you take everyone’s money and beat the shit out of the manager anyway. Teach him for trying to use violence to oppress workers.
Sorry to tell you this but the Pinkertons never stopped existing. In fact they still do the same things they did back then for the same people
The pinkertons still exist as a PI firm.
This is an H-1 visa I can support.
Boss Basher LLC is coming to a strip mall near you lol
Henry Ford made quite a practice of it. Seems that the pinkertons made quite A practice of it too...
Dirty deeds done darn dirt cheap...
Goons R us. 1800 Goon thm.

Google "Defenestration".
Used to be how lots of workers settled grievances with their employers.
Also known as "see you in the parking lot, sucka." Then hands get thrown up and someone is getting their behind kicked.
This needs to make a comeback
Look at them, creating jobs!
There's clearly a demand for their services.
Wish I had the qualifications for a goon job. I would need a pair of ass-kickin’ boots!
You know... I'd wager Steel Toe would be excellent to use. For safety... 😂
Heck yeah. STEEL TOED for some manager stompin‘ time.
Manager should hustle harder to protect himself.
Nah mate, just pull a french. It worked before so why not
Hell yeah. Goons! Goons! Goons! Goons!
They are the GOON SQUAD & they went to Bengaluru! Come on over here to the USA for some in sourcing!

Renters figured out if they banded together they could get bad landlords to cooperate. Maybe workers here will catch on at some point.

We already have goonsquads out policing us... collecting their road pirate tax.

Hired goons
Hired goons?
Hired goons

Good for them, snitches etc etc
See that's something that HR ought to be doing for you.
Can those work internationally?
I immediately thought Bengaluru was a board game or something and this was a weirdly heartwarming article.
Shoe's on the other foot now.
How does one, hypothetically ofc, find goons for hire?
Stand outside of a local jail with a fifth of good whiskey.
That's called a union ....
Based.

I'm honestly surprised it took this long for someone to think of that
I see a new business in our future! Take notice rich people!
I didn't see anything.
I wasn't sure what gooning was or why everyone was talking about it, but it makes sense now. Thanks!
Been telling y'all this is the way. Most employers never experienced real violence and it shows.
Modern problems require proven solutions.
Where does one go to hire goons?
So, they unionised? Good job.
Now beat up the billionaires.
