Poydock’s research shows that \u003ca href=\"https://www.epi.org/publication/unlawful-employer-opposition-to-union-election-campaigns/\">employers nationwide spend about $340 million per year to hire “union avoidance advisers,”\u003c/a> also known as “persuaders.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11940730\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 2000px\">\u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2023/02/DSC2273.jpg\">\u003cimg decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-11940730\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2023/02/DSC2273.jpg\" alt=\"A woman plays guitar while standing outside among a crowd of demonstrators.\" width=\"2000\" height=\"1333\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2023/02/DSC2273.jpg 2000w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2023/02/DSC2273-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2023/02/DSC2273-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2023/02/DSC2273-160x107.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2023/02/DSC2273-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2023/02/DSC2273-1920x1280.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2000px) 100vw, 2000px\">\u003c/a>\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Renee Saucedo, a member of the group Almas Libres, performs at Thursday's vigil in support of a union organizing effort among workers at the Fairmont Sonoma Mission Inn and Spa. \u003ccite>(Aryk Copley/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Arguello, the bar captain at the resort, said it shouldn’t be that way. “If the employees want to organize a union, I feel that they should be able to do so,” said Arguello, who recently moved from Sonoma to Vallejo — about 40 minutes away — because on his salary he struggled to afford rent in the area.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There shouldn't be coercion.

This, Gore says, is what happened to a huge number of Sonoma County residents during the 2017 wildfires.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If you find yourself in this kind of situation, Gore advises that you just “keep trying.” Confusingly, your phone’s screen might \u003cem>look\u003c/em> like you have good coverage, but cellphone data being overwhelmed will still prevent you from using your phone like usual.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11835196\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-11835196\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/08/RS44522_002_KQED_SantaCruzCo_CZULightningComplex_08202020-qut.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/08/RS44522_002_KQED_SantaCruzCo_CZULightningComplex_08202020-qut.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/08/RS44522_002_KQED_SantaCruzCo_CZULightningComplex_08202020-qut-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/08/RS44522_002_KQED_SantaCruzCo_CZULightningComplex_08202020-qut-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/08/RS44522_002_KQED_SantaCruzCo_CZULightningComplex_08202020-qut-160x107.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/08/RS44522_002_KQED_SantaCruzCo_CZULightningComplex_08202020-qut-1536x1024.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">A road closure sign in Felton during the CZU Lightning Complex fire on Aug. 20, 2020. \u003ccite>(Beth LaBerge/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003ch2>Know how to find Wi-Fi in an emergency\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Places like large stores (think Walmart) or coffee shops, like Starbucks, might provide Wi-Fi, and you often will be able to pick up the signal outside in the parking lot.

Currently, to combat the spread of the coronavirus, counties are focused on providing smaller temporary evacuation points and on offering hotel vouchers to evacuees instead of the usual large shelters with cots you might expect, to maintain social distancing and avoid the risk of virus transmission indoors in big groups. These temporary evacuation points offer Wi-Fi, but are also “a place to park your car, to take a deep breath and communicate with people, because your mind will be spinning a thousand times a minute,” Gore says.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Change your cellphone settings to allow voice calls over Wi-Fi\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>When your cellular data isn’t available, you can set your phone to make and receive calls using Wi-Fi, when you have access to it.

But what if the one device you rely on to communicate — your phone — isn’t working?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cellphone service can be reduced or vanish altogether during emergencies, as \u003ca href=\"https://www.mercurynews.com/2020/09/11/california-wildfires-reps-blast-cell-companies-unconscionable-move-to-block-backup-power-rules/\">cell towers go down\u003c/a> amid power shutoffs, or when overhead fiber lines on utility poles are \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11622310/fire-victims-frustrated-by-lack-of-wireless-connectivity\">damaged by fire itself\u003c/a>. Service interruptions like these stop people from being able to get in touch with family and friends to confirm their safety, and prevent them from receiving the very emergency alerts they’re relying on for evacuation updates. (\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11834901/fire-evacuation-what-actually-happens-and-how-can-you-plan#2\">If you’re not signed up for emergency alerts, do it right now here.\u003c/a>)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So if you’re caught in a disaster situation like a wildfire and your cellphone loses coverage, what can you do?

You might be able to make a call, but not be able to send or receive texts, or the other way around. Or you might have to completely rely on finding Wi-Fi.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That’s because of \u003cem>how\u003c/em> cellphone coverage fails during a disaster like a wildfire. When lines are themselves damaged by fire, calls won’t work, but texts — which place less demand on cell towers — might.\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>\u003cstrong>Jump straight to: \u003ca href=\"#save\">Save our tip graphic to your phone’s camera roll\u003c/a>\u003c/strong>\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>But if there’s an outage because of a public safety power shutoff, smaller cell towers might not get power from the system’s battery backup, meaning cellphone data clogs up and texts can’t get through. This, Gore says, is what happened to a huge number of Sonoma County residents during the 2017 wildfires.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If you find yourself in this kind of situation, Gore advises that you just “keep trying.” Confusingly, your phone’s screen might \u003cem>look\u003c/em> like you have good coverage, but cellphone data being overwhelmed will still prevent you from using your phone like usual.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11835196\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-11835196\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/08/RS44522_002_KQED_SantaCruzCo_CZULightningComplex_08202020-qut.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/08/RS44522_002_KQED_SantaCruzCo_CZULightningComplex_08202020-qut.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/08/RS44522_002_KQED_SantaCruzCo_CZULightningComplex_08202020-qut-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/08/RS44522_002_KQED_SantaCruzCo_CZULightningComplex_08202020-qut-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/08/RS44522_002_KQED_SantaCruzCo_CZULightningComplex_08202020-qut-160x107.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/08/RS44522_002_KQED_SantaCruzCo_CZULightningComplex_08202020-qut-1536x1024.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">A road closure sign in Felton during the CZU Lightning Complex fire on Aug. 20, 2020. \u003ccite>(Beth LaBerge/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003ch2>Know how to find Wi-Fi in an emergency\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Places like large stores (think Walmart) or coffee shops, like Starbucks, might provide Wi-Fi, and you often will be able to pick up the signal outside in the parking lot.

Currently, to combat the spread of the coronavirus, counties are focused on providing smaller temporary evacuation points and on offering hotel vouchers to evacuees instead of the usual large shelters with cots you might expect, to maintain social distancing and avoid the risk of virus transmission indoors in big groups. These temporary evacuation points offer Wi-Fi, but are also “a place to park your car, to take a deep breath and communicate with people, because your mind will be spinning a thousand times a minute,” Gore says.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Change your cellphone settings to allow voice calls over Wi-Fi\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>When your cellular data isn’t available, you can set your phone to make and receive calls using Wi-Fi, when you have access to it.
