Weed St dispensary workers slam corporate overlords opposing unionization effort — but say it s unclear who s actually in charge

Tom Schuba/Sun-Times Employees of a Weed Street dispensary slammed their “corporate overlords” on Wednesday for allegedly pushing back against their unionization push though it’s unclear who’s currently running the pot shop in Goose Island. During a news conference Wednesday outside Windy City Cannabis, 923 W. Weed St., two workers said they’re organizing to fight for better wages and bonuses, added job security and considerations to keep workers safe amid the pandemic. “We’re in the middle of a terrible recession and workers are always the people who are going to face the brunt of it,” Jake Lytle, a product specialist, told reporters. “So we need to make sure that we can keep ourselves protected.”
