Bug Zoo workers have first contract

 

 

 

Workers at Victoria Bug Zoo have agreed to their first collective agreement after they voted to unionize in 2022.

 

MoveUP vice-president Christy Slusarenko said the first agreement is often the hardest. “We’re honestly very proud to achieve this collective ­agreement with the Victoria Bug Zoo.”

 

As a result of the agreement, the zoo’s 12 employees will no longer be paid minimum wage and will instead start at an hourly salary of $21.

I think it’s in Nootka Court.

The question is how far are bugs willing to travel. And at what speed.

IIRC Speed Buggy could move at a pretty good pace.

With the voices of Mel Blanc, Michael Bell, Arlene Golonka, and Phil Luther Jr., the show follows an orange anthropomorphic dune buggy who alongside teenagers Debbie, Mark, and Tinker, solves mysteries while participating in racing competitions around the world.

It was Scooby Doo if the Great Dane and the Mystery Machine were morphed into one entity.
