Fenway Park and MGM Music Hall concession workers ratified a new contract with Aramark! They had been without a contract from the end of 2024 until yesterday.

Full details are not released yet. But it sounds like the employees got more stable hours, increases in wages/commissions, and better staffing ratios on the self-checkout machines.

Last summer they had an intermittent strike at Fenway against Aramark (not against the Red Sox).

@newsmast I have enjoyed seeing sports content here for the recent #MLS Cup finals and #MLB World Series! It was nice to see people live-tooting through it. Both were major cultural events, especially here in Canada because in both cases there was a Canadian team in the matchup.

I have also been pleasantly surprised to find some #PWHL fans here! Women's hockey fans are everywhere 😁 🏒🏒🏒

One big way I get sports content on here is via the @cbcnews feed. I get a lot of my regular Canadian news from there, too. @Flipboard has been doing a great job at bringing news sources to the fediverse.
