Anyone still paying Union dues and getting nothing in return? The cost benefit analysis isn't lining up anymore.

It's been exactly a year since I've had ZERO work and feel like 44 isn't doing anything for us AT ALL. I know they are powerless right now (correct me I'm wrong), but as a member, I see all those people at 44 getting paid and it's starting to become a bummer.

I've been a big supporter of 44 (warts and all!), but now I'm just feeling angry.

Anyone else?

Flock Cameras Need to GO

These things are a clear violation of autonomy. There are two in front of Big Nicks. Just sayin'.

There are cities that are covering them up.

>Automated License Plate Readers (ALPRs or LPRs) are AI-powered cameras that capture and analyze images of all passing vehicles, storing details like your car's location, date, and time. They also capture your car's make, model, color, and identifying features such as dents, roof racks, and bumper stickers, often turning these into searchable data points

>These cameras collect data on millions of vehicles regardless of whether the driver is suspected of a crime. These systems are marketed as indispensable tools to fight crime, but they ignore the powerful tools police already have to track criminals, such as cell phone location data, creating a loophole that doesn't require a warrant.

Not selling much? Maybe your closet has been deemed "inactive".

I just got a notice that things in my closet were "inactive".

My ENTIRE CLOSET WAS DEEMED INACTIVE.

The rule is allegedly "after 60-days". I share daily, have had "likes" and uploaded a bunch of stuff a couple weeks ago: all inactive.

I feel like sociopaths have taken over the app. They are framing this as "helping" buyers not have to deal with abandoned closets.

Guess that explains why my sales and views were tanking since the last update.

Edit: well waddaya know! Since I "reactivated", I have actually sold something and started getting clicks again!

This is one of many Poshmark closets that are just poaching various Amazon stores. This person is also a Poshmark "ambassador".
