Gibson is a barista who worked at the Lyrik Cafe for over a year.

Mike Lemmo bought the business at the beginning of August and replaced original staff after they trained their replacements. Mike often used abusive language and called Gibson a “dirty hippie” shortly before firing her via text message.

He then stole over $100 from Gibson’s final paycheck, and has yet to provide her with a single paystub.

Gibson, We Are Oregon, and dozens of community allies have held a series of actions at the Lyrik Cafe over the last 3 weeks, topped off with a picket on Tuesday. It is important that we keep the pressure on Mike to return the wages he stole from Gibson.

Mike is turning 65 this weekend, and you’re invited to his birthday picket! Come share your birthday wishes, walk the picket line, and eat some cake!

Saturday, October 27th, 2012

Meet at SE 38 and Grant
picket at 39 and Lincoln

In Solidarity,
Angela MacWhinnie
