So good to see @mayaajmera.bsky.social publically recognize the need for excellent, accessible science journalism. If great science journalism matters—so do the workers who make it happen. @society4science.bsky.social it's time for a fair contract now. 500+ days is too long. #Concordia25

a screen capture of a tweet from @ConcordiaSummit 6 hours ago, the tweet reads '“Students need excellent content to understand science and engineering at the pace it is being created and innovated.” - @MayaAjmera, President and CEO of the @Society4Science at #Concordia25'

“A growing focus on flexibility and purpose-driven work?” “Prioritiz[ing] collaboration, well-being, and lifelong learning?” Those are things we’ve been waiting for in our contract for 517 days, @mayaajmera.bsky.social

@society4science.bsky.social CEO @mayaajmera.bsky.social is speaking at #concordia25 about "collaboration" and "well-being" in the future workplace. Meanwhile, @sn-media-guild.bsky.social workers have spent 516 days at the bargaining table with little to show for it. Yikes. 😬

No matter how you write it out, that’s a ridiculously long time. Workers at @sciencenews.bsky.social and @snexplores.bsky.social deserve a fair and timely contract.

@society4science.bsky.social and @mayaajmera.bsky.social this is not it. ✊

Today marks 500 days since we started bargaining. Seems like you’re a little behind on that fair contract, @society4science.bsky.social. It’s all good. Here’s a calendar to help you keep track of the important things. As science journalists, meeting deadlines is kind of our thing.
