Yeah, they're not gonna leave it to chance. It's pretty wonderous to watch, really. They're gonna pull every card they have. Take these, for instance:
Amazon got in touch with the city and changed the traffic light patterns to make traffic worse for union voters:

And even installed an official postal box on their site so they can monitor who is voting for later scrutiny/intimidation:

Oh, and Amazon sponsored their busy employee's working time to make them attend mandatory sessions on why unions are bad:

There’s no indication that the county was aware of the ongoing organizing drive or any effect the traffic light changes might have on the effort. Improving traffic flow is somehow now an anti-union activity?
