This will come back to bite the unions, part 1

For transparency and my own agenda, my husband and I own a 2023 Tesla Model Y.

The power struggle between the union and Tesla Motor Sweden AB (TM) continues. Personally, I sincerely hope that Mr. Elon Musk does not give in to the union.

The original conflict is between the union IF Metall and TM. A further number of unions have joined the conflict by ordering their members to go on a sympathy strike.

For example, Sweden's ports are not allowed to unload goods that include Tesla cars or spare parts, car workshops are not allowed to repair Tesla cars, car paint companies are not allowed to paint Tesla cars, tire workshops are not allowed to change tires on Tesla cars, companies that service Tesla charging stations are not allowed to carry out work on them and so on.

Even the mailmen are on a sympathy strike and will not distribute mail and letters to TM. All companies that have a collective agreement with the unions must, according to the agreement, participate in a sympathy strike if the union orders it.

I guess the union is at a really low point right now but the good news is that the worst is still ahead.
