Wednesday morning, Napa County SEIU 1021 showed up with coffee, donuts, purple tablecloths, and a simple message:
“Brew Up Some Respect”
“Donut Forget — We’re Here for You”
Over the last several months, too many workers across our workplace have expressed feeling unsupported, discouraged, isolated, or simply unheard. So this morning wasn’t about speeches or confrontation. It was about presence.
We gathered early, shared coffee and conversation, checked in with one another, laughed a little, and reminded our coworkers of something important:
A union is not just negotiations, grievances, or meetings.
A union is people showing up for each other.
Thank you to the stewards, Executive Board Members, our Union Representative, and workers who stopped by before the workday began. Small acts of solidarity matter. Sometimes a cup of coffee, a donut, and knowing somebody has your back can say a lot.
Purple looks good in the workplace. 💜
