Landmark Theaters Employee Union

  Landmark has started its own very exclusive social networking site, so exclusive, that this dude doesn't even have any friends yet.

That’s right, Kendall Square Cinema’s very own house manager,
Howie Sandler,  was named Landmark’s manager of the year.

Congratulations!

Workers at Shattuck Cinemas in Berkeley and all Landmark Cinema employees nation wide are about to receive a pay increse.
At Shattuck Cinemas in Berkeley the starting wage goes up to $8 per
hour from $7.25.  That's if the workers choose to accept it. Landmark
attorney Tom Pavone sent a letter announcing the pay raises to the IWW
along with spread sheet data showing the increase for each worker.

The
IWW-Shattuckunion considers this to be a clear demonstration of union
power and will continue to press the company for gains in benefits and
improvments in working conditions.  The IWW in the Bay Area
along with union workers at Kendall Square cinema in Cambridge Mass.,
are the first two Landmark Cinemas to go union.  There are
approximately 60 Landmark theaters in total. 

IWW-Shattuckunion will hold a rally in front of the Shattuck Cinema on September 1st at 6:30 pm.

Jeez, maybe he can't afford to give us raises...
