SEATTLE — Space Needle employees joined labor activists rallying for higher pay outside the iconic landmark Wednesday.

Employees who work at the Needle say they haven’t had a raise in more than 1,000 days.

They are also upset seasonal workers will be hired, some making more than union workers who have worked there for years.

The rally also comes after workers said they were given webinars on how to live on less.
