Hyundai’s US Auto Plants Are Rife With Labor Abuses
The raids at a Hyundai battery plant in Georgia earlier this month illustrate the impunity of Donald Trump’s brutal immigration crackdown. They also shine a spotlight on Hyundai’s labor practices, including exploitation of vulnerable migrant workers.

As you might have imagined, last night during the #WorldSeries was a good night for #DoorDashing
There were few lulls.
4:23PM - 10:09PM
18 DD = $120.50
5 UE = $49.73
But it was also a weird night because two things happened that have never before:
1) I had to return a whole UE order because it contained alcohol, the customer had no valid ID, and the Uber app refused to complete it any other way. So be forewarned! (I was shocked that I still got full pay!?)
2) I came *this* close to running out of charge in the EV! It is only the second time since owning the car that it has gone under 5%! The little 🐢 icon came on and everything! It is not usually a problem but with commuting to work 170km (starting with 80% charge) cooler weather, rain, using the defog constantly for 5.5 hours while dashing and an extra long night (I usually only go to 9PM) I pushed it a little too far! 😂 I did 30kph for the last 3km from the last delivery to home base. 😂 🪫 I should have realized the night before and charged to 90 or 100%.

The “sticker range” advertised on the lot for our new 2019 Hyundai Kona EV was 420km.
The battery was replaced under recall at around 40,000km in 2022 a couple months before we went on an epic 12,000km Pacific-Atlantic-Pacifc cross Canada adventure.
Fast forward to today. The car is at 226,000km and I am headed 225km down to Victoria to bring my wife home from the Airport.
Car is ready. 100% charge. 468km on the rangeOmeter. That is city driving so I don’t expect to get that range at highway speeds. I’ll top it up in Sydney before heading home. This was always our main criteria. Can we drive to Victoria comfortably.
Yep. No problem. Even 200,000km later!
Range anxiety is a myth foisted on you by the oil industry. They are gas lighting the world into believing we are the problem, evs are the problem, electric systems are the problem.
They are the problem. Them. Not us. Them. They need to end.

pitstop 2. quick charge up at one of the brand new 180kw BCHydro chargers in Sydney at the east end of the YYJ runway!
Our Kona maxes out at 77kw. We'll charge to 80 or so. Only 212km to get back home.
oh wait! Wifey just flew right over us! 😂 ✈️
Apparently she's a little early. Quick charge indeed! charged to 74%
